THE NUMBERS SHOW A PATH FORWARD
While the ultimate result is not what we had hoped for, there is much we accomplished together.
300 volunteers
In 18 months, we built a team of over 300 volunteers who helped us make more than 50,000 phone calls and send more than 100,000 texts.
114,000 votes
This is the highest number of votes a Democrat has received in this race since it was an open seat without an incumbent in 2012. Unfortunately, our shared effort was not enough to win the race. The state of Indiana and this District were hit with a red wave, and Democrats did not turn out in the same numbers as Republicans.
$950,000 raised
More than 95% of these contributions were from individual donors and none were from corporate PACs or self-financing. Pat followed through with her commitment to be responsible to the people of this District, not outside corporate interests.
