Most Liberal Senator On the Run
Posted By: U.S. Senator Jim DeMint, Chairman
I'm writing to give you a brief update on the U.S. Senate race in Ohio and the amazing progress made by our endorsed candidate,
Josh Mandel (R-OH).
Liberal incumbent U.S. Senator
Sherrod Brown (D-OH) is in deep trouble. According to a recent poll conducted by a Democratic polling firm, less than half the voters in the Buckeye State want to re-elect him even though he's almost universally known.
The poll also shows
growing momentum for Josh Mandel (40%) against an increasingly vulnerable Sherrod Brown (48%). Mandel has already closed this race down to a single-digit gap (-8%), which is better than where now-Ohio Senator Rob Portman and now- Ohio Governor John Kasich were at this point in their campaigns two years ago.
Also,
Josh Mandel has taken the lead among independent voters. These Americans are unhappy with the direction of the country and they're tired of Sherrod Brown pretending to be a conservative at home while voting like a liberal in Washington. They're looking for someone like Josh Mandel who will do what he says he'll do.
We have many of you to thank for this progress.Because of the financial support provided by thousands of SCF members in Ohio and across the nation,
Josh Mandel outraised Sherrod Brown two quarters in a row. In total, Mandel has raised over $3.8 million and has over $3.2 million cash on hand.
This is a remarkable achievement and it's a testament to the quality of this candidate and the grassroots enthusiasm for his campaign.I'm confident conservatives can win this race, but we still have a lot of work to do. Josh Mandel is still unknown to many voters and the liberal special interest groups will do everything they can to defeat him.
Please continue to pray for Josh and please continue to
support his campaign financially through the Senate Conservatives Fund. Remember that when you donate to Josh Mandel through SCF, he gets 100% of your contribution and SCF pays for all processing and handling expenses.
Thank you for your continued support and encouragement. We'll keep fighting.
