John, things just went from bad to worse.

Last year, historically low voter turnout rates resulted in huge Democratic losses.

Yesterday, we suffered huge losses AGAIN when Democrats failed to show up at the polls.

Kentucky:
Turnout: 31 percent.
The result: Tea Party golden boy Matt Bevin won and will become just the second Republican governor in more than 4O years

Virginia:
Turnout: 25 percent in the pivotal State Senate race.
The result: Republicans kept their two-seat majority on the State Senate, ensuring that they can (and will) keep blocking a Medicaid expansion for the less affluent

Mississippi:
Turnout: 32 percent.
The Result: Right-wing Republican Governor Phil Bryant cruised to re-election with 66% of the vote

The results of the last two elections are clear: when Democrats don't show up at the polls, Democrats lose. And when Democrats lose, the effects are devastating.

In Virginia, higher turnout might have helped Democrats win one more seat, which would have given them the tiebreaker needed to control the Senate.

That's the difference between tens of thousands of Virginians receiving Medicaid or being stuck without health insurance.

Democratic voter turnout is the key to victory in 2016. And we're laying the groundwork to reverse our party's chronically low turnout -- but we need you with us.

John, fight back right now to make sure that these crushing losses don't happen in 2016:
