Hi John, Emma here, Andrei’s campaign manager.
Throughout this campaign, I’ve been blown away by your belief in Andrei, in what this campaign is all about, and your willingness to step up to make it possible. You deserve the facts so I want to explain to you why this end-of-quarter push is the most important one of this year. But before I get into it, can I ask you to chip in to help us reach our end-of-quarter goal ahead of Sunday’s FEC deadline?
You know the stakes of Andrei’s race in AZ-01 couldn’t be any higher. In 2022, Andrei’s extremist opponent, David Schweikert, narrowly won this seat by less than 1% of the vote.
But there is even more to it than that. AZ-01 is the must-win district in the must-win state of 2024 for President Biden to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office. This one district will determine control of both the House and White House.
Axios projects that because of this, $820 million will be spent on political advertising in Arizona – most of it on the presidential campaign and most of it in September and October before Election Day. This means that while the fall months will be critical for our campaign, the spring months are maybe even more important. We need to tell voters about Andrei – who he is and what he stands for – before we get drowned out.
So next week, right after Sunday’s deadline, I’m going to have to tell Andrei about what we can afford in our budget – how much we can spend on getting our message to voters on their televisions, on their computers, at their doors, and in their mailboxes.
Thanks to your continued support, Andrei has continually outraised Schweikert – the only challenger in America to do so against an incumbent. Last year, we even broke an off-year Arizona fundraising record. But all of that won’t help if we fall short now before this Sunday’s deadline.
John, will you chip in $25, $50, or whatever you can today to help us hit our goal and ensure we have the resources we need to get Andrei to Congress?
