Support his challenger Rob Zerban!

'The finance staff and I have just been looking over the budget and spending plan for the next 40 days and with just a little help from our supporters before our deadline on September 30th, we can execute an aggressive voter outreach plan.


We are only $11,394 away from our $350,000 goal. Chip in $7 today to help us meet our goal.


Paul Ryan has increased his original $2 million television ad buy. He knows that Rob is a real challenger and he thinks he can win this election by spamming the airwaves with his lack luster, staged advertisements.


He is wrong about that. We are contacting hundreds of voters every day and they are sick of the way Paul Ryan is treating his Congressional seat as if he is entitled to it.


Donate today to help us reach our goal.


We can win this seat and defeat Paul Ryan twice on November 6th.'


Best,


Al

They are usually running for the House too. In the Senate, you run every 6 years, so you may or not be running in a year when you arfe running for the Senate too.
