John, I want you to hear this directly from me: I cannot do this without you. And with just 41 days to go until the primary election, I have nowhere else to turn.

Polling shows that 20% of California voters are still undecided on who they'll cast their vote for, meaning this is truly still anyone's race! It also means that my opponents are spending millions to bombard voters with TV ads – and I just don't have the resources to keep up with their insanely expensive ad buys. 

But that's okay. Because elections aren't won on TV – they're won on the ground. That's why I'm drastically expanding my voter outreach efforts by hiring more door knockers, phone bankers and team members to ensure that every voter knows who I am and what I stand for. 

And we know for a fact that when voters find out about my progressive record and my platform, I win them over. That's exactly how I built this incredibly powerful grassroots team – and also how I secured endorsements from progressive champions such as Stacey Abrams, Ro Khanna, Ayanna Pressley, and Pramila Jayapal. We even received the most delegate votes at the California Democratic Party's Endorsement Convention.

So I know we can do this, but only together. John, I know you hear a lot from me, but it's only because I trust you and believe that I can't do this without you. So please, if you can spare any donation to my campaign now so I can reach more voters on the ground, it would mean the world to me AND make a huge difference in this campaign.

Thank you so much for your support.
