Sen. Al Franken (D-MN)’s re-election campaign is fundraising with comedienne and fellow Saturday Night Live alum Amy Poehler.
The campaign sent a fundraising email out to supporters on Thursday featuring a chance attend a party in Los Angeles hosted by Poehler next week.
Franken, who had a long-running comedic career before running for office in 2008, has made a habit of being both direct and also comedic in his fundraising diatribes, such as a rather direct one he sent out in 2013.
Read the latest fundraising email below:
Amy Poehler is hosting a little party for Al in Los Angeles on April 24th — and you could be there.
We’re calling it the SPRING! into Action with Al and Amy sweepstakes. If you give $5 or more, you’ll be automatically entered for a chance to win to join the party.
The campaign will pick up airfare and hotel accommodations for you and a friend. If you win, all you have to do is show up, eat some free food, and pose for what will probably be the coolest selfie ever.
The sweepstakes is only open until tomorrow at noon — so don’t miss your chance. Give $5 or more to be automatically entered for a chance to win.
Good luck!
