Please, give me 30 seconds of your time. It’s Wiley Nickel, and here’s why I’m running for U.S. Senate. Republicans won’t stand up to extremism, no matter how much it hurts our state. I can’t be bought, and I’ve never backed down from a tough fight — not when I worked as a White House staffer for President Obama, not when I won a tough Congressional seat, and not when I stood up for affordable healthcare and voting rights here in North Carolina. I’ll always fight for what’s right — especially when the odds are stacked against us – but I can’t do it alone. I’m running to shake things up and fight for the bold, people-first change North Carolinians deserve. Will you chip in today to join our movement and help us flip the Senate blue? Any amount helps us kick off this campaign on the right foot.
