24 in 24: Wait til you read this...

From an email from my good friend Josh Mandel:

One thing I?ve learned in the 67,084 miles I?ve traveled throughout Ohio is that people are tired of greedy, unethical politicians who use our tax dollars for their own selfish gain.

If you consider yourself one of these people, then help fight back today!

I'm launching a grassroots fundraising effort to raise $24,000 in 24 hours to help combat my opponent?s recent actions, which are some of the most egregious violations of the public trust I have ever seen.  You can read about it below.

Your contribution of $25, $50, $100, $250, $500 or even more will help me send a message to my opponent and the political establishment that the days of ?politics as usual? are over, that integrity matters, and that working hard and sticking to your principles will pay off.  Please click here to help me send your message today!
 
Here's what we are up against...
 
Nine months ago, my opponent was appointed chairman of the Ohio Complete Count Committee (Ohio Census Committee).  Even though his position as State Treasurer has nothing to do with the Census, he was still appointed to this position ? and many people wondered why?

Well, we just found out why.  

A recent Cleveland Plain Dealer article revealed that my opponent plans to appear in television and radio public service announcements promoting the Census ? even though he?ll be on the ballot only months later!  Simply put, this is a blatant abuse of OUR tax dollars and it degrades the integrity of the Census in an attempt to increase his own name recognition for political gain.

There is only one way for me to level the playing field ? with your support.  

And if you thought this abuse was bad enough, just yesterday a national investigative reporter published this story on Townhall.com revealing an even broader pattern of tax dollar abuse and political games by my opponent.

All the while, our state?s bond rating has dropped and the state faces a nearly-insurmountable structural budget deficit.  Now more than ever, we need leaders with fiscal discipline and integrity to right the ship.

While I have been campaigning the old fashioned way, through hard work, sweat and 67,084 miles traveled throughout the state, our opponent is using OUR tax dollars for HIS political gain.  Now is the time we must stand up for fiscal discipline, integrity and new leadership in our state.

I'm sincerely grateful for your past generosity, but as I learn more about what I am facing, I realize that I need your help again today.  

Please help me in my effort to raise $24,000 online in the next 24 hours.  Please visit my website and donate today to send our opponent the message that fiscal responsibility, hard work and integrity is what will prevail in 2010!

Thank you for your support.
 
Josh
