John, I'm so grateful for the outpouring of support I've received since I launched my U.S. Senate campaign a couple months ago. 

But, to be honest, I'm still being outspent and outraised by the others in this race – and I urgently need to prove that I have a strong team behind me. That's why I'm asking you to personally endorse my campaign.

I’m counting on 15,000 grassroots supporters to endorse my progressive campaign for U.S. Senate before midnight tonight. I know it doesn't sound like much, but your endorsement will help me reach more voters and prove to all that this campaign WILL be a powerful force for change. So please, will you add your name, John?

I've never been afraid to do what's right. And in my two decades in office, I have continued to fight for progress, even in the face of fierce opposition. 

Now, I'm ready to take that fight for progress to the U.S. Senate, but I can't do that without your help. Recent polling shows that I am statistically tied with the others in this race among informed voters, but those numbers are drastically different among other voters. That's why I urgently need to increase my name recognition and reach more voters with my record – and your endorsement can help me do just that. 

We have the opportunity to make history together – but it's only possible if people like you step up now. So please, if you're in this fight with me, will you endorse my campaign today so we can build a progressive future for all tomorrow?

I hope to see your name on my list of endorsements. 

Thank you so much.
