John, I have an important update on the state of our race, so I wanted to personally reach out:
FIRST, my opponents spent all summer and fall raking in huge sums of special interest cash.
BUT THEN, I was the top vote-getter at the California Democratic Party Endorsement Convention.
NOW, with FIFTY-SIX days to go before ballots drop, the latest polls show most voters are STILL undecided and I'm within striking distance of finishing in the top two.
Here's the thing: As a Black woman, I knew I would never raise the most in this race – because on average, Black female candidates raise just a fraction of what white candidates do. But, I don't need to raise the most; I just need to raise enough to reach the right voters.
And if we do that, we will win – because the polls have made it clear that the more voters learn about me, the more I earn their support. That's why we plan to put every last resource toward expanding our voter outreach – and I'm counting on you to help fund these efforts.
John, will you rush $5 or more right now to help me close the gap in the polls, win in California and build a progressive future for all of us?
