Hi John —
I’m in San Francisco trying to squeeze in some debate prep in between campaign events before I take the stage in tomorrow’s U.S. Senate debate.
This will be our first televised debate since county elections offices mailed ballots to every registered voter in California. Millions of Californians have ballots *in their hands* — so I don’t need to tell you why today is the most important day yet of this election.
Usually, our best fundraising days of the month don’t come until the very end. But the truth is that if we wait until February 29 for a final boost before Primary Day on March 5, it’ll already be too late. Especially with my pre-primary filing deadline with the Federal Election Commission later this week.
Californians are voting right now — and as many as one-third are still undecided. We need to raise $125,000 before midnight in order to reach them. Can you rush $10 before midnight?
The last time we took the debate stage, Steve Garvey, the conservative celebrity Republican without a shred of political experience, called me a liar repeatedly. Fox News teed up a softball interview for him to broadcast his attacks across cable news to every conservative in California.
Another one of my opponents has launched a series of attacks so uncalled for in recent weeks that California’s trailblazing former Senator Barbara Boxer came off the sidelines to endorse our campaign.
And that opponent’s side just upped the ante: Their super PAC is buying a $500,000 ad blitz that POLITICO called a “surgical strike” in the final weeks of this primary election.
We need to respond before I hit the stage and face even more inevitable attacks — that’s why we can’t miss this $125,000 goal. John, can you rush $10?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Whether we reach these goals will determine how many resources we can devote to voter outreach. That really matters. I don’t take a dime of corporate PAC money, so I really do count on your support. And I can’t thank you enough for giving our campaign the boost we need in this final primary sprint.
Thank you so much.

P.S. If you took a double take on February 29, yes, 2024 is a Leap Year — in case you weren’t dreading a long enough election year already!
