John, I’ll get right to it. My campaign team set a goal of raising $5,500 before tonight at midnight to get our September fundraising back on track, but right now we’re still $1,018 shy of that goal.

I’ll explain more in a moment, but first: Is there any amount you can pitch in to help us reach tonight’s must-hit goal? If everyone reading this email chipped in just $1, we’d be able to close the gap in no time.

John, I’ll be honest. Asking for your hard-earned money is my least favorite part of the job.

But in a race so close that numerous non-partisan election forecasters have labeled it as one of the most competitive races in the nation, every single dollar we raise makes a difference in how hard we’re able to fight.

And with everything from our reproductive freedoms, our Social Security and Medicare, our jobs, and our democracy itself on the line in this election, we can’t afford to give this campaign anything less than our all. That’s why I’m personally asking for your support, John.

Ensuring our campaign is on track to end September in a strong position is our number one goal. So please, before midnight tonight, is there any amount you can pitch in to help us close our fundraising gap and keep my campaign running at full steam?

Thank you so much,

Emilia
