Bob Latta's election is this coming Tuesday, December 11 -- and he needs your help for the final push.
This past week, the Slatecard community, with the tremendous help of blogs like Redstate and Blogs for Victory, has been helping drive funds to Latta's campaign. Having raised nearly $750 from 16 contributors, we've pushed him in to the Top Five Hot Candidates list on the front-page of Slatecard.
Will you help him right now with a donation of $100, $50 or even $25 to help ensure a Republican holds this important seat?
Here's a special video message from Mr. Latta:
On Thursday, Bob Latta wrote a guest post at Redstate on why the Ohio-5 Special Election matters:
I am running for Congress in Ohio's Fifth Congressional District.
Our Special Election is next Tuesday, December 11 and I need your
continued support to get my message out to Ohio's voters.
Make no mistake. Ohio's Fifth Congressional District is
conservative. But my liberal opponent is getting some help from Nancy
Pelosi and the liberal netroots helping her put false, defamatory ads
up on the airwaves. And this race is extremely close.
I need to continue to get my message of getting tough on illegal
immigration, supporting the sanctity of life, protecting our Second
Amendment rights, and cutting taxes stays out to the voters by keeping
my ads on the air in these crucial final days.
Your support is truly helping and we are all taking notice.
I want to thank the Republican netroots community for supporting my candidacy, especially those at Slatecard, Redstate, and Blogs for Victory.
If you have a minute, please consider supporting my candidacy with a financial donation today. Whether it's $1,000, $500, or even $50 -- it will make a difference and help me get my conservative message out.
Also, if you are in Ohio, or would like to come here to help, please email us and let us know.
With your help, we'll keep this district Republican and one less vote for Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco agenda.
Thank you,
Bob Latta
Republican Candidate for Congress (OH-5)
