With your help I have gone from last to third place in Barbara Boxer’s PAC for a Change contest. On Tuesday I dropped to fourth place due to a feisty Claire McCaskill going to number one.
We can win this contest. It takes less than 30 seconds for you to register your vote. Please DO IT NOW!
Compare and contrast what what the other contestants in this contest are pulling in funds-wise for their races:
| Candidate | Funds Raised | Funds on Hand | PAC Funds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Claire McCaskill | $2,869,343 | $2,050,483 | $437,421 |
| Bob Casey | $8,429,141 | $4,474,480 | $770,759 |
| Barbara Ann Radnofsky | $957,857 | $281,799 | $7,000 |
| Pete Ashdown | $57,222 | $11,438 | $0 |
See any differences? I applaud my fellow Democrats’ efforts, but ask yourself who would be the most fiscally conservative spending your tax dollars in Washington? I have been campaigning for over a year, put down over 18,000 miles, received national and international press attention, visited hundreds of community meetings and events, and hand pitched thousands of ice-cream Creamies to overheated children in parades everywhere. Getting a hand up from a sitting U.S. Senator will help this race considerably and I will not squander its benefit.
So please take a moment to VOTE and help me out by forwarding this message and recruiting others to help.

[…] Barbara Boxer’s “Pac for a Change” contest ends in three days. Looking at the percentages and reported votes, more than 1,400 people have voted for me. Thank you. Considering that there are 1783 people on my mailing list, this has been an impressive rally so far. Doubling this number to beat Bob Casey in three days will be difficult, but it is worth the effort. So please vote if you haven’t, and continue to spread the word to your friends and associates. […]

Good luck, Pete!!! X-Mission has a great reputation as a supporter of the community. You have provided a tremendous service to by hosting web-pages for many community service agencies at no cost to them. That kind of commitment to our community is what we need in the Senate.
