BREAKING Democrat Eric Giddens has just been declared the WINNER of tonight's special

election for a crucial swing seat in the Iowa Senate!

Republicans went all in on this race, pouring in tens of thousands of dollars to try and lock down one of Donald Trump's most important battleground states. But Eric's relentless grassroots effort turned them back decisively – and it gave Democrats a chance to show early unity, as nearly every Democratic presidential contender took time away from their campaigns to lend a hand.

This is an outstanding early sign for 2020, but there's no time to celebrate right now – because our next crucial battle is already upon us.

In just eleven days, Democrats face an extremely tough challenge in dark-red Louisiana, where our nominee Jeremy LaCombe is fighting to win a state House seat Donald Trump carried by nearly 20 points. If we mobilize right now, we can win another huge victory – but only if Democrats everywhere pitch in again.

The road ahead is NOT going to be easy: Please RUSH $10 right now to help win our next huge victory and keep building Democratic momentum everywhere >
