Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
SIREN: RGA Comes In To Bail Out Doug Ducey…In April
Arizona Is The First State RGA Goes On Air, Sign Ducey Is In Trouble
After his botched response to the Arizona education crisis, Doug Ducey is in political trouble. Today, the Republican Governors Association made that clear, launching a nearly $350,000 television buy to bolster his campaign as it teeters on the brink of collapse.
Arizona is the first state in the country where RGA is going on the air – in a race that was rated as “Likely Republican” in the beginning of the campaign cycle. The Republican Governors’ Association clearly recognize the political fallout from Ducey’s education failure.
“The RGA is confirming what everyone already knows: Doug Ducey is in trouble,” said David Turner, DGA Deputy Communications Director. “It doesn’t take a political savant to know that going up with a large television buy, in April, is a sign of weakness. The fact is, Doug Ducey should be terrified. His plan to take funds meant for disabled children to fill a funding gap he’s ignored until an election year is both awful policy and politics.”
Just today, Arizonans are reading headlines like:
- Montini: Gov. Ducey dwells on fake border crisis instead of real teacher crisis
- Díaz: Gov. Ducey not fooling teachers with social media publicity stunt
- Roberts: Arizona teacher strike is Gov. Ducey’s nightmare
