Did you see my team’s message from yesterday, friend?

Based on Utahpolicy.com’s new poll, our path to re-election will be no cakewalk. But if you look up optimism in the dictionary, it says Utah Democrat.

We know we’ve got a tough fight ahead of us, team, and I need your help to win it. Can I count on your support to help my campaign reach our February goal and prepare for the work we have ahead of us?

I’ve got to admit, team, I’m optimistic because of you. These are the same pollsters and talking heads that counted us out in 2018, but because of your support, we sure showed them.

Now, I need your help to prove them wrong again. According to my team, we’re still $2,500 away from where we should be at this point in the month. Can you chip in any amount now to help us get back on track?

Thanks for sticking by my side,

Ben

We’re in for a fight, team.

Utahpolicy.com just confirmed what we already know: Ben’s re-election chances are balancing on a knife’s edge. As news outlets, pundits, and pollsters continue to analyze our race, we know only one factor truly matters -- your support.

We couldn’t have won in 2018 and definitely won’t win in 2020 without your continued dedication to this campaign. So, team, can we count on you to step up and help us meet our February goal?

Honestly, team, we’re behind our projected goal right now. In a tough re-election fight like ours, these goals matter more than ever. They allow us to buy ads on social media and TV, and build the strongest field operation possible. And with dark money and special interests groups already pouring money into this race, we need your help to reach as many voters as possible with Ben’s message.

This is going to be one of the most competitive campaigns in the country, and your support could be the difference between a win and a loss in November. Please, chip in to help us make up our budget deficit and meet our February goal. >>

Thanks for all you’re doing in this fight!
