Hi team,

My name is Shelbi Dantic, and I was born and raised right here in Montana. I’ve known Jon practically my whole life. And now I need your help to reelect a leader who will stand tough for the Montana I grew up in.

As Jon Tester’s campaign manager, it’s my job to manage our budget and crunch the numbers to ensure we have the resources we need to win this race.

I’ve spent hours poring over poll results, projected TV budgets, turnout numbers from previous cycles, you name it. I know exactly how much we need to raise, exactly when we need to raise it to compete with our opponents and win this race.

That’s how I know we HAVE to reach our upcoming FEC deadline. National Republicans are already trying to outspend our campaign. Can you chip in a donation right now? It’s important.

This will be one of the toughest races in the country. Jon’s already facing misleading attack ads from far-right groups seeking to take back control of the Senate. And once we close the books on our FEC deadline, our fundraising numbers will go public. If national Republicans see any signs of weakness in our report, you can bet they’ll pour even more money into Montana.

And I’ll be honest—we’re not anywhere close to hitting the goal I’ve set for this quarter. I know our budget inside and out, so I wouldn’t be asking you if it wasn’t absolutely necessary. Here’s a snapshot of our numbers:

This is a real screenshot from our ActBlue account. We’ve got to pick up the pace.

As you can see, we saw a steep drop in donations over the weekend, and we need to make it up today. Please, make a contribution to Jon’s reelection campaign to help us get back on track.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

I can’t thank you enough.
