John, with just two days until the primary election, I want to cut through the noise and explain where things stand in this race.
Last week two new polls dropped. The first, showed us in third place, behind Republican Steve Garvey by six points. The second, conducted later when voters had more time to see our ads, showed us one point ahead of Garvey and in second place. These polls also show that large margins of voters—nearly 20% are still undecided about who to support.
So while this forward movement is a promising sign, Schiff saw the exact same poll. He has been spending millions of dollars to try and *boost* Garvey into the second place spot so that he has an easy-to-defeat general election opponent.
Both Schiff and his super PAC are spending heavily on Fox News to propel Garvey into second place, despite Schiff’s previous calls for advertisers to boycott the network.
To be frank, Schiff and the super PACs supporting him are just drowning us out. He’s spent $25 million on advertising and has twice as much cash on hand as us, and is outspending us three to one on TV.
On top of that, a crypto industry backed super PAC has spent $10M on deceptive ads attacking me.
I wouldn’t ask for your $5 if this race was hopeless. Even though we’ve been outspent throughout this race, we’re still in a dead heat for second place. As voters tune in during this final stretch, we must reach the millions who are still undecided.
If I come in third, my time in Congress—fighting corruption, holding polluters accountable, and as the only single mom of school aged kids—comes to an end. If we make it past the primary, polling shows I have a strong chance of winning the general. I just need your help, right now, to stand up to the corporate special interests attempting to buy this seat. With just two days left, can you make a $5 donation right now?
