Good evening, John. I'm reaching out with a critical update on our race. After our decisive primary victory earlier this month, we're off to an incredible start in the general election.

Not one, but TWO recent polls show us TIED with Ted Cruz – up from 2 points down in January and 5 points down last year!

It's never been clearer that we can beat Ted Cruz. His last race was one of the closest Senate races Texas has ever seen – he won by just over 2%! And now, with our polls tied, CNN has named Cruz the most vulnerable GOP Senator in the country.

Cruz and his allies are scared right now, John, and that means the money is about to start pouring in.

Right-wing donors have already dumped more than $46 million into Cruz's campaign because they know just how vulnerable Ted really is. And they're going to keep writing him checks so he can spread lies and false attacks about me all the way until Election Day.

That's why my team and I set a goal to raise $65,000 every day to make sure we have the resources to fight back against whatever they throw at us. But there's no way we can hit this ambitious goal without this grassroots team! So will you please rush $5, $25, or whatever you can spare to power our campaign through Election Day so we can finally defeat Ted Cruz? →

Your support has gotten me this far, but I need you with me every step of the way.

Thanks so much,

Colin
