“A private Republican poll last week
found Ms. Hyde-Smith’s lead over Mr. Espy had narrowed to just five percentage
points.”

Election Day has come and gone, but we still
have one more chance to win a Senate seat for Democrats - in Mississippi.
I know - normally, we wouldn’t consider
Mississippi a good pickup territory for Democrats. But my friend Mike Espy is
in the middle of a very tight runoff campaign there - he’s closed the gap and
is now polling just 5 points behind his Republican opponent. That’s very close
to the margin of error.
Recent history - like Doug Jones’s win in
Alabama - shows that Mike can win. But the runoff election is just one week
away, and Mike needs to turn out the vote. That’s why I have to ask, right now:
When Mike wins next week, he will not just be
another vote for Democrats in the Senate. He will make history as the first
African-American Senator from Mississippi since Reconstruction. This will be
especially meaningful because his opponent has resorted to racist dog whistles
on the campaign trail and brags about suppressing the vote. Even her biggest
corporate donors are publicly demanding their money back - her comments are
that bad.
It’s time to send a message and bring this one
home - so please, while there is still time, support Mike Espy’s runoff
campaign and help us win the last Senate election of 2018.
Mike and I are counting on you.
