I have to control myself when it comes to donating to Democratic causes because I'll empty my bank account if I'm not careful.
But I had to donate to Lisa Blunt Rochester's Senate campaign (Delaware). She really does need help & the Senate majority is at stake.
Please consider a donation. https://go.lisabluntrochester.com/yaVV1J
Gotta Love β€οΈ This!
History in the Making π€
#Maryland Rep. #DavidTrone of #TotalWine gave up his safe House seat, spent more than $60 million of his fortune and lost the #Democratic primary to #AngelaAlsobrooks, who hopes to become only the third Black woman to be elected to the Senate!
And if #LisaBluntRochester of #Delaware wins her Senate contest, voters will have doubled the number of #BlackWomen elected to the Senate in #American history, and for the first time ever, two Black women will serve in the #Senate at once
And if #SarahMcBride wins, she'll be the first #trans woman elected to #Congress

Fantastic News from #Delaware!
#LisaBluntRochester on Wednesday announced a bid to succeed retiring Sen. Tom Carper in Delaware, laying the path for the Democrat to potentially become the third Black woman to ever serve in the Senate.
Blunt Rochester joined the House in 2017 and was the first woman and person of color to represent Delaware in Congress.
