Aaron, who broke Babe Ruth’s home-run record in 1974, emailed Nunn’s supporters urging them to contribute more money to the campaign. The email, unsurprisingly, was laced with baseball references from the 80-year-old. The Huffington Post [had](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/24/hank-aaron-michelle-nunn%5Fn%5F5617331.html?&ncid=tweetlnkushpmg00000016) some of the details from the message: --- > “” --- Aaron joins Vice President Joe Biden as another high-profile supporter of Nunn. A political newcomer, Nunn will vie for the open Senate seat with new Republican nominee and businessman David Perdue in November. The result of the Georgia race could have a bearing on control of the Senate, which currently comprises 53 Democrats, 45 Republicans and two independents. \[[Huffington Post](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/24/hank-aaron-michelle-nunn%5Fn%5F5617331.html?&ncid=tweetlnkushpmg00000016)\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3032447/hank-aaron-swings-for-democrat-michelle-nunn-in-fundraising-plea/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3032447/hank-aaron-swings-for-democrat-michelle-nunn-in-fundraising-plea/"},"headline":"Hank Aaron Swings for Democrat Michelle Nunn in Fundraising Plea","datePublished":"2014-07-25T07:33:28.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:20:39.674Z","description":"Hank Aaron calls the fundraising push a “money bomb”","url":"https://time.com/3032447/hank-aaron-swings-for-democrat-michelle-nunn-in-fundraising-plea/","keywords":["Campaign Finance","georgia"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt84fa47cae705018b/69869d31cd804df533ccc1af/rtr3khao.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Stephanie Burnett","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/stephanie-burnett/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt84fa47cae705018b/69869d31cd804df533ccc1af/rtr3khao.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"MLB: New York Mets at Atlanta Braves","caption":"MLB: New York Mets at Atlanta Braves","creditText":"Daniel Shirey—USA Today Sports","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/campaign-finance/","name":"Campaign Finance"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3032447/hank-aaron-swings-for-democrat-michelle-nunn-in-fundraising-plea/","name":"Hank Aaron Swings for Democrat Michelle Nunn in Fundraising Plea"}}]}] ```
