John, I have good news and bad news.

I always like to hear the good news first, so let's start there:

My campaign is gearing up to launch our next round of digital ads! And, with 32% of California voters still undecided about who they'll vote for, these ads will be instrumental to reaching enough supporters and winning this incredibly competitive primary.

But now for the bad news:

Other candidates in this race spent a lot more than us on online ads this month. And that means they have had a lot more time to convince California voters to vote for them, not me.

John, these ads could be a game changer for my campaign – but unless I hit my $100,000 end-of-month fundraising goal, we may never have the resources we need to launch these important ads. So I'm humbly asking:

Please, will you rush whatever you can spare to my campaign right now to help me get my next round of digital ads live? My critical end-of-month fundraiser ends TOMORROW, and I'm still falling short. >>

Thank you so much for your support here.
