Friend – I know it's late on a Friday, but I have nowhere else to turn. As of 6 p.m., I'm still $3,192 short of my mid-month goal, and I need your help to close the gap.

With Senate control hinging on Ohio, my GOP opponents will spend big to defeat me – and experts even predict that this could be one of the most expensive races in the entire country.

That's why I can't afford to fall behind now. So please, will you rush a donation in the next few hours to help me get back on track? Our final deadline is at midnight, and I'm counting on your support to keep both Ohio and the Senate blue.

Thank you so much,

Sherrod
