John,
We’ve been taking stock of this year’s election results and thanks to supporters like you, we had 144 wins across 21 states and 43 red-to-blue flips.
That means 30% of all our victories were flips, and each was powered by people who believe in building a new generation of leaders from the ground up.
|
Here’s what we learned from this year’s red-to-blue wins:
-
Affordable housing resonates everywhere
-
Lived experience beats political polish
-
Community-centered candidates outperform expectations
-
Voters want leaders who know their towns
-
Younger, more diverse candidates win when given real support
That’s why we recruit leaders like: Robert Andrews (CO), Kimberly Jaramillo (PA), Isabel Mata (WA), Shikole Struber (NY), Saria Lattimore (OH)—candidates rooted in their communities, not the political establishment.
Your donation today directly powers:
We need 100 donors by midnight tonight to stay on track for our $26,000 goal.
|
Let’s keep the momentum alive and the flips coming.
