Fellow Conservative,

We’ve known one another for a long time, so you know by now that when I ask for favors there is a reason. 

I’ll be straight with you: my campaign needs your immediate financial support. A lot of folks around the country don’t think that my seat is at risk, but the truth is that no one knows that for sure. 

You know that Democrats HATE ME. 

I know that Democrats HATE ME. 

But I bet you didn’t know that they hate me to the tune of $52,000 per day, did you? 

When my opponent announced his fundraising numbers for the third quarter earlier this month, it shocked me. From July 1st to September 30th, he raised more than $4.7 million from the liberal coasts that he’s going to use to smear my good name ahead of next year’s election. 

Texans know me; Americans know me. It’s no secret what I stand for. But I’ll tell you this: if Democrats are allowed to vastly outspend us on the airwaves, there is no telling what kind of twisted lies they’ll try to spin to make my supporters flip sides. 

We cannot – WE WILL not allow them to win. I need to know you’re still with me and Senate Republicans. If you are, I’m asking for you to send us just $5 right now.  

By the end of the day, we need 5,000 individuals to donate $5 or more to keep Texas Red and help us flip the Senate. Can I count on you right now? 

For Freedom, 

Ted Cruz
