John,

I know it’s Friday night and you’re probably getting ready to kick off your weekend, so I’ll keep this short.

My first big fundraising deadline since taking office is just hours away, and my finance team just told me we are still short of our end-of-quarter goal.

Throughout everything, I’ve always been able to count on this grassroots team – and it would mean the world to me if you could step up again now to help us close the gap. So I’m humbly asking: Can you please pitch in before midnight tonight to help us meet our end-of-quarter goal?

If everyone reading this email chipped in just $5 before 11:59 pm tonight, we’d reach our goal in no time!

Here’s my personal link to give: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/[email protected]

Thanks for everything, and have a great weekend!
