Dear Friend,
I wanted to send you a quick note about some great news from the last couple days. We have only 19 days left and we are moving in the right direction because of your efforts. Thank you!
Last night we found out that you helped Bob out raise John Shadegg almost 3-to-1 in the most recent FEC reporting period. This is BIG news and shows just how much Republicans, Independents, and Democrats are all fighting for change in Arizona's Third District.
This morning in the Washington, DC paper Roll Call, they reported: "Already unable to mount a proper defense of the 40-plus GOP House seats that are obviously under threat of a Democratic takeover, Republican incumbents are now scrambling to avoid upsets in at least five districts that were previously deemed safe...Of these latest potential upsets, Democrats appear to be most enthused about attorney Bob Lord (D), who is challenging Shadegg in Arizona's suburban Phoenix 3rd district..." (Subscription-only)
Earlier this week, the East Valley Tribune reported that longtime pollster and Arizona State University professor Bruce Merrill said: "I think there could be a real surprise in district. This is the first time really had any significant competition, and Lord's running a pretty aggressive campaign."
We have a lot of momentum and need your help to keep pushing through Election Day. If you want to help more in these last 19 days, give us a call at 602-274-0068 and come in to volunteer.
Thank you for your continued support!
Andrew Eldredge-Martin Campaign Manager Bob Lord for Congress
