Make a difference before the March 31st fundraising deadline. Support Paul Hodes in New Hampshire and Kirsten Gillibrand in New York. |
There's no doubt about it: You make a difference.
With your help, WesPAC helped Democrats in 2006 take over both Houses of Congress for the first time in over a decade. And in 2008, you helped Democrats expand our majorities and take back the White House.
Now, two of those candidates you first helped elect to the U.S. House in 2006 are in critical Senate races for 2010: Paul Hodes in New Hampshire and Kirsten Gillibrand in New York. Both are facing the important March 31st fundraising deadline -- their first critical test to show the press, pundits, and their opponents that they have the support they need to win their important Senate races.
Let's make sure they pass this test. Join me and donate to Paul and Kirsten's campaigns now, before the critical March 31st fundraising deadline!

Paul Hodes has been a leader in New Hampshire for decades. He led the first successful criminal environmental prosecution in the state. And when he arrived in Congress, he immediately got to work, passing Michelle's Law to expand health care for college kids when they get sick in school.
In New Hampshire, Democrats control the state legislature, the Governorship, both House seats, and one Senate seat. The open Senate seat that Paul is running for in 2010, being vacated by Republican Judd Gregg, is the last major GOP holdout.
Paul's race is our best opportunity to pick up a Senate seat in 2010. However, with former Republican Senator John Sununu being recruited by his father to run again, it is imperative that Paul's first quarter fundraising numbers are strong. We have to show all the political insiders -- including John Sununu -- that the GOP's tall task isn't just beating Paul, but beating a huge army of grassroots supporters standing with him.
Help Paul show New Hampshire that he's ready to be the 60th Democratic seat in the Senate. Contribute to his campaign today!

In 2006, I went up to NY-20 in the final weekend before the election to campaign with Kirsten Gillibrand. Kirsten was one of the most impressive candidates I met the entire cycle, and I was thrilled we helped her win in a tough, Republican district.
Kirsten is a strong advocate for women and has consistently voted against torture, illegal wiretapping, school vouchers, and disability discrimination. In January 2009, Kirsten was appointed to the U.S. Senate to fill Hillary Clinton's seat when Hillary became Secretary of State.
Now potential opponents are lining up to try and take this seat. And just like Paul's campaign, the media and potential opponents will look hard at this fundraising report to see if she can win.
Please make a difference again. Let's give Kirsten the early support she needs and help her close the March 31st fundraising quarter strong.

Our Clark community first helped elect Paul and Kirsten to the U.S. House in 2006. Now let's help elect them to the U.S. Senate in 2010 -- so they can continue to serve our country in Congress.
Sincerely,
Wes Clark
