RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - With most polls showing Democrat Kay Hagan either leading her Republican opponent Thom Tillis or tied with the House Speaker, the Hagan camp is going after conservative supporters of Tillis.

 
In an e-mail distributed Tuesday, the campaign sought to gather donations with its anti-Rove, anti-Koch message.
 
The email is below.
 
-----------------------
 
Dear Friend,
 
Karl Rove is all in for Kay’s opponent, Thom Tillis.
 
Rove's outside groups have already spent $5 million on Tillis' behalf. And Rove himself was on Fox News defending Tillis’ actions that have hurt North Carolina’s middle class.
 
Rove's made his choice for North Carolina -- the same choice the Kochs have made. But we know, Friend, that it’s the WRONG choice for North Carolina families.
 
Kay is our choice -- and if she’s going to win, she needs us. We need to hit our $450,000 goal before this month’s deadline. Pitch in a few dollars to get us there.
 
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
 
Express Donate: $5
 
Express Donate: $10
 
Express Donate: $25
 
Or donate another amount.
 
 
 
Rove jumped to Tillis’ defense pretty fast. Hey, I don’t blame him: I would too if my outside groups had already invested $5 million to help Tillis get elected.
 
But here’s the truth: All that money won’t change a thing. Polls are showing that, even though this is a close race, Kay’s got the momentum.
 
And as long as she’s got the best grassroots network out there, there’s no way Rove and the Kochs will get their way.
 
Kay will continue to be the top target of special interest attacks. And we need to continue hitting our goals to fight back. Contribute your $5 (or more) to help us bring in another $450,000 in August.
 
Thanks.
 
Preston
