It's primary day here in Ohio, friend! From Ashtabula to Miamisburg, voters are casting ballots in our race – which experts say will decide Senate control.

That's why the GOP has personally named me a top target for defeat. Donald Trump just held a rally here for his handpicked candidate, and Republican super PACs are spending record-breaking amounts to attack me on the airwaves.

But while they're in this fight for their megadonor friends, I'm in this fight for you, friend. This campaign has always been about advancing the Dignity of Work for all our families, and today's primary is the first major test for our grassroots movement. 

So with Senate control on the line, we can't afford to back down now. That's why we need to raise $500,000 by the time polls close at 7:30 p.m. so we can defeat whichever rich guy wins the GOP primary and keep up our shared fight in the Senate.

So please, friend, I'm personally asking: Will you split $5 now – or our average donation of $26 – between my campaign and Gary Peters so we can win in Ohio and defend our Senate majority?

I'm always grateful for your support.
