Dear Friend,
Election Day may still be 20 days away, but, in many ways, this week is the one that will determine who will be making the decisions that will impact Ohio for the next several years.
As you read this email, our endorsed candidates' campaigns are making final decisions for the election—volunteer operations, final round of TV, radio, and print ads, Get-out-the-vote (GOTV) efforts, etc.—all based on how much money they've got left in the bank and how many volunteers they've got signed up.
For these women, it's truly now or never.

Contributions will go directly to these women's campaigns, giving them the final push they need to help them cross the finish line. And believe me when I say that at this point in the race, every dollar counts.
Feel like taking a more hands-on approach? An extra pair of boots (or heels!) on the ground, both before and on Election Day, could make all the difference in a close race. It's critical that we all make time to support the women who will be supporting us in office.
For instance, why not skip the weekend trip to the theater (Taken 2 will still be around two weeks from now, promise) and use that time to phone bank for a candidate. Which is a better date night anyway? Two hours of watching Liam Neeson glower at people...or two hours spent mobilizing voters to put an end to the war on women?
However you choose to get involved, let's make sure Election Night is a good one for women in Ohio!
Can we count on you?
Erin Loos Cutraro
Vice President & Political Director
