Hi there, this is Mandela Barnes.

I wanted to take a minute to say thank you and wish you a Happy New Year!

I am so grateful for all the grassroots support we have received so far during this campaign — thanks to you, we reached our end-of-year fundraising goal.

That means that we’re heading into 2026 in a strong place to fight back against the MAGA dark money that will be pouring into this race.

Billionaires like Elon Musk have tried to buy our elections before, so we have to prepare for them to double down this November.

My campaign is supported by grassroots donors, not dark money billionaires. Our democracy shouldn’t be for sale, and that is what I am going to be fighting for as your next Governor.

If you haven’t had a chance yet to chip in to our campaign, you can use this link to keep up our grassroots-powered momentum: secure.actblue.com/donate/mb-em-fr-jan26

Thank you for standing with me,
Mandela Barnes
