John,

In a moment, we’re going to ask you to make a donation of $10 or whatever you can afford toward our campaign to defeat Josh Hawley and elect Lucas Kunce.

But first, here’s a look at our race by the numbers:

Josh Hawley has the lowest approval rating of any GOP politician in Missouri. After winning his last election with just 51% of the vote, his approvals have fallen to 42% — even lower than Republicans like Ted Cruz + Rick Scott.

Over the last three election cycles, Missouri voters have passed ballot initiatives to raise the minimum wage well above the federal level, expand health care through the ACA, and legalize weed — each vote with huge margins.

With your help, we’ve built a record-breaking movement that can harness that grassroots energy by raising $2.3 million over the last six months — the most ever raised by a Missouri challenger this far into a Senate race.

But none of this means our race will be easy. GOP mega-donors and corporate billionaires just formed a brand new Super PAC that raised more than $1 MILLION to attack Lucas and prop up Josh Hawley’s campaign.

It’s absolutely critical that we’re prepared to fight back against their attacks at any moment. That’s why our campaign set a goal of raising another $50,000 before our big end-of-month deadline at midnight on July 31st.

But since less than 1% of people reading this email will make a donation to our campaign today, we urgently need YOUR help, John.

Will you chip in $10 or whatever you can afford toward our end-of-month goal so we can stay prepared + continue strengthening our grassroots movement? Lucas doesn’t take a cent from corporate PACs, so we’re relying on real people like you to fuel this campaign forward every step of the way.

Thanks for all your help, John.

Team Lucas
