I’ll be really direct: With just hours to go until the mid-month fundraising deadline, we still have a ways to go to hit our target and stay on track for the first FEC deadline of this critical election year.

Will you contribute to my campaign ahead of tonight’s midnight deadline? Anything you’re able to contribute right now will make a meaningful difference in our race to flip North Carolina’s Senate seat.

The momentum we’re seeing right now is incredible. People are fired up about our fight to give North Carolinians leadership they deserve and help Democrats take back the Senate.

But with Mitch McConnell and the Koch network dumping so many resources into our election, we have to raise more money if we want our message to cut through the noise and reach voters.

That’s why your donation matters so much today.

So I’m asking: Can I count on you to add a contribution of any amount you can afford to our campaign before midnight tonight?

Our campaign wouldn’t be as competitive as it is — let alone 5 points ahead — without your support every step of the way. I can’t thank you enough.
