[1]Lucas Kunce for U.S. Senate

Hey John,
it’s Lucas Kunce.

Before we all get busy with our New Year's celebrations today, I wanted to
take a moment to reflect on everything we’ve accomplished together this
year. So before I ask you to [ [link removed] ]add a donation of any amount toward our
end-of-quarter goal ahead of our deadline at midnight tonight, please let
me share:

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN NOW →

When we launched this campaign by holding Josh Hawley accountable for his
actions on January 6th, I knew we had the potential to build a powerful
grassroots movement. We rallied tens of thousands of supporters together
in that first week, broke fundraising records, and put a national
spotlight on this U.S. Senate race.

National Journal said our campaign represents “one of the Democratic
Party’s better offensive targets” in 2024 — and we’ve worked hard to prove
that right.

Over the first nine months of this year, our campaign outraised Josh
Hawley — breaking the record for the most ever raised at this point in the
cycle by a U.S. Senate challenger in Missouri. That was huge.

We consolidated support across the state, from statewide and local unions
to elected officials and community leaders. The Missouri AFL-CIO endorsed
our campaign earlier than they’ve ever endorsed a challenger before. And
national organizations like League of Conservation Voters announced their
early endorsements because they know how high the stakes are in this race.

Throughout the year, we drew out voters across the state to town halls in
places like Hannibal, Cape Girardeau, and St. Joe. At our big labor rally
in St. Louis County earlier this fall, hundreds of Missourians who are
ready to defeat Josh Hawley in 2024 came together to support our campaign.

And most recently, after we spent all year holding Hawley accountable to
voters, multiple polls confirmed that this is already a margin-of-error
race.

of upsetting Josh Hawley. Two polls beneath. Poll 1: Lucas Kunce 43%, Josh
Hawley 44%, Margin of Error +/- 3% | Poll 2: Lucas Kunce 42%, Josh Hawley
46%, Margin of Error 4.9%

The unfortunate thing is that GOP insiders and corporate mega-donors have
been worried about our campaign since the day we launched. They know that
Josh Hawley’s approvals are tanking among Missouri voters, and they know
that our message of taking back power for working people is strong enough
to flip this Senate seat next November.

So now they’re trying everything. They attacked me for being a “nerd” and
playing a card game. They transferred huge amounts to Hawley’s campaign
over the course of this year to make him look strong. And over the summer,
they even had a handful of mega-donors put more than a million dollars
into a brand new Super PAC to fund even more attacks against me.

[ [link removed] ]FIGHT BACK NOW

After all the momentum we’ve gained over the last few months especially,
there’s no telling what’s to come in the new year — what they’ll do, say,
or spend to tear down our movement and re-elect Josh Hawley.

After our deadline tonight, and once reports are submitted in a few weeks,
we’ll know more about how much they’ve invested in our race. But for now,
we can’t stop growing the movement we’ve built this year and we can’t
afford to fall short of our end-of-quarter goal. That’s why I’m coming
directly to you, John:

[ [link removed] ]Will you add your
first donation of any amount toward our goal of raising
40,000 individual donations before midnight tonight? I’m not taking a cent
from corporate PACs or Big Oil + Pharma executives in this race, so you
know I mean it when I say anything you can afford to give makes a big
impact.
