The DCCC just confirmed what we’ve been building for months: Richard Hudson is vulnerable. This race is one of the most competitive in America, and every grassroots donation helps us stay in the fight.

I never thought we’d see the day when speaking out against Donald Trump could get you arrested while hate marches go unchecked. We can’t just shrug this off. If you’re with me in this fight, chip in today.

I’m not in this for politics. I’m fighting for everyday Americans. My opponent, on the other hand, is too busy taking cash from the pharmaceutical industry and voting to raise your healthcare costs. Chip in to spread the word.

Richard Hudson, Trump’s bootlicker-in-chief, promised NC-09 that we wouldn’t be in Iran in November. Half a year later, the war he called “short-term” is never-ending. We need to boot Hudson out of NC-09 and bring our troops home. Chip in now to make it happen.

They said this race wasn’t winnable. Now Washington is paying attention. I’m taking the fight straight to Richard Hudson, but I need grassroots support to keep up the momentum.

Each name opens the page’s Vipima page, with its own figures and its link to Meta’s Ad Library.
Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
