Public Theology: Surprised

Dear Friends,

Did you see it?

Sunday night, seconds before the Chicago Bears' game got underway, our campaign launched a new ad featuring people from throughout Dan's life touting his record as Comptroller and making a strong case for why he should be our next Governor.

The ad can be seen by clicking here:

The impact was immediate – calls and emails started coming in from people who loved the ad and wanted to learn more about Dan. The strong response reinforced what we already know, the race for Governor is wide open and the more people learn about Dan and his fair plan to solve our state's financial crisis the more his support grows.

But spreading this message comes at a cost, and Dan needs your help if we're going to stay on the air. By making a contribution of $100, $50, $25 or whatever you can give now you can help Dan continue to spread his winning message across the state.

Just last week the Paul Simon Public Policy Institute released an independent poll that showed half of all primary voters in Illinois undecided and declared that in the race for Governor the current frontrunner is "un-known;" with Governor Quinn's reelect numbers dangerously low. In the same poll, Dan had the highest job approval rating among all Illinois elected officials at 82 percent.

It's clear the race is wide open!

At the same time, our momentum continues to build. Last week, Dan earned the endorsement of the State Council of Operators and Engineers as well as the State Council of Sheet Metal Workers, building on our already long list of supporters.

Help us continue to build our momentum as we communicate across the state by making a contribution of $100, $50, $25 or whatever you can give now.

Together, we can help Dan win this campaign and be part of an effort that gets Illinois back on the right track again.

Thank you for your support and for all that you do.

Best,

Michael Rendina
Campaign Manager
