we need to talk about Virginia

Friend, I have an urgent favor to ask of you. Columnists at The Washington Post have made it crystal clear: The only surefire way to defeat GOP extremism in your state is by electing a Democratic governor. We urgently need to do that here in Arizona – and we need to do it in Virginia, too, where my friend Terry McAuliffe is running to defend his state from creeping extremism. Our races are two of the biggest battlegrounds of this election cycle, and we're both up against Trump-backed extremists who would rather represent Donald Trump than everyday people. But Terry's election is less than two weeks away – so he needs a surge of support NOW. [Can I count on you to split an urgent donation between our campaign and Terry's in Virginia to keep Republican extremists OUT of power in the states and elect Democrats everywhere?]( This is NOT a fight we can afford to sit out, friend. Virginia is teetering on the edge of a dangerous cliff right now: Terry's opponent is a Trump-backed extremist who has lied about both his own record and Terry's – and he's planning to spend MILLIONS of his personal fortune to try and buy this seat. If we don't step up and help Terry now, Virginia will be the next domino that falls to GOP extremism – and it could set the tone for our race in Arizona. Polls are showing his race NECK AND NECK with just days left to reach every voter they can, so it's now or never. This is how we win in Virginia and remind the Arizona GOP not to get too comfortable. But you have to be part of it, and we need to act immediately.

Thanks, Marco Lopez --------------------------------------------------------------- Please read on for a personal message from Democrat Marco Lopez: Friend, I’m so grateful you’re part of our people-powered movement to flip Arizona blue. But I have to be honest: I’m counting on your help now more than ever. I’m a proud Democrat, former border city mayor and Obama administration alum – and I’m running for governor to build a state that works for all our people. But failed GOP politicians like Kelli Ward and Doug Ducey are spreading delusional conspiracy theories and putting Donald Trump’s interests ahead of what’s best for our state. Enough is enough. But with Arizona slated to be the nation's TOP battleground in 2022, Republicans are gearing up to spend MILLIONS to keep the governorship red, so we’ll only win this race with overwhelming grassroots support. If you’re with me, [please chip in to power our fight forward.]( Thank you so much. – Marco Lopez [I'm running for governor to defeat GOP extremism, put a Democrat in the governor's office and build a state that works for all our people.]( [Donate]( This email was sent to {EMAIL}.
