I hope you’re enjoying your summer. If you’re lucky, that means some time with family. I just got to visit my daughter, Thomasin, who does ceramics, and we made plates together.

If you donate $5 or (preferably) more, you will have a chance to win one of these two, one-of-a-kind (they’re different) plates that Thomasin and I created together and (she) fired in her kiln.
Your donation not only gives you a shot at winning a one-of-a-kind Franken original — it helps Midwest Values PAC support Democrats in meaningful races and progressive organizations in meaningful fights. This year, that means competitive gubernatorial races in New Jersey and Virginia. And next year, the midterm elections — which might be our best shot at winning back the majority in Congress and saving this country.
Think of these plates as “Resistance Ceramics”?!
Two lucky folks will each win one of these two one-of-a-kind plates. You can only enter once. But if you’d like to donate more, that’s allowed (and appreciated).
Thanks and good luck!
P.S. I drew the maps from memory, but they’re quite accurate. And Thomasin’s work is beautiful!!!
P.P.S. Do not enter if you are going to immediately put your plate on e-bay (I’ll be watching).
P.P.P.S. And make sure to visit Thomasin’s website. The berry bowls are very popular!
