New polling shows this race in striking distance — we must act now.
I’m Rachel Petri, the campaign manager for Chris Pappas for Senate.
I’m writing with an important update on the New Hampshire Senate race — and an urgent request. We need your help to match the GOP’s growing firepower here in the Granite State. Please read about the situation on the ground below.
CAMPAIGN MEMO
TO: TEAM PAPPAS SUPPORTERS
FROM: RACHEL PETRI
RE: CHRIS PAPPAS FOR SENATE
- Independent polling continues to show Chris and former Senator John Sununu in a very competitive head-to-head matchup with some surveys showing this race within the margin of error.
- National Republicans are now openly treating this as a top battleground race. Senate leaders have rallied behind Sununu and touted New Hampshire as a key pickup opportunity.
- Experts predict more than $100 million could be spent on this seat with dark money already flooding in to distort Chris’s record and mislead Granite Staters.
- GOP operatives are circulating memos arguing that with Sununu as the nominee, this seat moves from “competitive” to flippable for Republicans.
This all matters. This race is not a foregone conclusion, and New Hampshire is not a safe blue seat. New Hampshire voters are watching, GOP super PACs are throwing their support in, and the stakes could not be higher. Here’s what that means for our campaign:
Chris is running the strongest values-driven campaign possible: focusing on lowering costs for families, strengthening our economy, and defending individual rights. But when the other side is treating this race as a top pickup opportunity, we cannot afford to be complacent.
If there’s one thing you take away from this memo, let it be: New Hampshire is highly competitive right now. And this race will come down to turnout and organization. That’s why we must raise urgently needed resources to keep our campaign strong and in front of Granite Staters right now.
To keep our efforts on track, we need to raise $150,000 before the end-of-year deadline.
