Keith Ellison needs help???

'Keith Ellison here. I’m running for re-election for Minnesota Attorney General and I’m in the race of my life. The PCCC and I have fought for justice together for YEARS. Today, I'm in a neck-and-neck race for re-election, and I need your help.

You may remember that when Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd in broad daylight, we got him convicted. He is now serving 22 years. We've taken on some of the biggest cases, from Derek Chauvin, to suing Exxon Mobil and the opiods companies.

As Attorney General, I’ve been fighting to help people afford their lives and live with dignity, safety, and respect, especially when they have nowhere else to turn for help.

Can I count on you to pitch in?'

I have a yahoo account that is inundated with campaign appeals. I started using a gmail account because I never gave it out in anything political!

And the texts are LONG. And when you send STOP to one number, a different number starts sending texts. I have no proof, but I think that Act Blue, which does all the fund raising for dem candidates, shares your email/phone number with democratic pundits. Why else would I be getting texts from James Carville asking me to give to some dem campaign? I wouldn't stop contributing because of it, but I'm sure some people would.

You are correct they are selling those emails to democratic campaigns. Not that I’m mad but those “I’m losing please help “ are getting pathetic.

I was actually surprised he won the AG slot the first time because of the nature of Greater Minnesota. His re-election is probably tougher.
