Fellow Conservative,

I hope you’re well. I’m personally reaching out to ask you for a family favor. Today is my son’s birthday! Ted is turning 53 years old! Can you believe it?  

He has been making countless campaign calls and hitting the campaign trail hard these past few months. And I want to ensure he is able to relax and enjoy his birthday tonight.    

That’s why I wanted pitch in and help by asking all of you: his friends, supporters, and conservatives all across our Nation to please pitch in $53 to celebrate Ted’s 53rd birthday.  

Can I count on you? I’ll be personally telling Ted how much this email raises tonight. And I need extra help to make sure this works!

Please pitch in $53 or whatever you can right now to help us say Happy Birthday >>  

Thanks again to all of you on Team Cruz for all your hard work and generous support. And Merry Christmas from our whole family to yours. Thank you!  

With thanks, and warm wishes,  

Eleanor, Ted’s Mom
