Friend,

We have a question for you, Friend. What will be the legacy of the 2022 midterms?

Here’s what we want to send you in December 2022 as we are (gulp) gearing up for the 2024 presidential election: Together, we turned out millions of voters across several key states to help secure President Biden and key Democrats in the Senate, House, and statewide offices a resounding victory over Trump and Trumpism. We kept Big Lie deniers out of executive offices in swing states such as Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. 

Of course, we know that the ultra-MAGA lunatics are aiming for a different legacy. They’re hoping the 2022 midterms are a turning point for our democracy, where they can permanently install a regime of extremists and election deniers who will unilaterally decide our elections for decades to come. You know who they are. Doug Mastriano in Pennsylvania. Adam Laxalt in Nevada. Kristina Karamo in Michigan, to name a few. 

One thing we keep saying: This isn’t some fringe group of wackos anymore. This is who the GOP is. Want receipts? Of course you do, via the Washington Post:

The numbers don’t lie. Election deniers are overwhelmingly looking to take over elected offices across the country. No matter what the nominees that have made it through the primary gauntlet would have you believe (seriously, they’re pretending Trump doesn’t exist and never endorsed them) –  there is no real intra-party dissent. No moderate wing of the GOP just needing a majority to calm down. No. Just a full bore commitment to making The Big Lie the absolute law of the land and hand the election in 2024 to Trump or whoever they want.

There are 54 candidates (and likely more in the coming days) that are looking to make this happen and they’ve got a whole bunch of MAGA money at their disposal. So let’s ask the question again, Friend. What do you want the legacy of the 2022 midterms to be?

We know which side you’re on. Donate today and help us decide the legacy of the 2022 Midterms.
