Hi there! It’s Blakely, Janelle’s Campaign Manager.

Janelle reached out to you on Wednesday, and I want to make sure you caught her email. Here’s what you need to know:

We have an important FEC fundraising deadline just a few days away. That means the stakes couldn’t be higher this time around.

In a race as competitive as ours, when our FEC report is made publicly available, we know all eyes will be on us. So, it’s really important for us to showcase the full strength of the grassroots team. If we raise a strong number, it will send a powerful message about the viability and strength of Janelle’s campaign—not only to our opponents and the media, but also to voters.

If you’re able to step up and add in a donation today to show your support, it’ll mean so much to Janelle and to the success of our campaign. Here’s the best link to contribute: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/bynumq12024?refcode=Q1Deadline

Thank you!

Hi everyone – It’s Janelle! 

I wanted to reach out with a critical campaign update and explain why I’m counting on your support more than ever before. 

This Sunday at midnight, our campaign will face our first end-of-quarter deadline of the year. As you may remember, this means we’re legally required to publicize our fundraising numbers for the general public to see.

When these numbers go public, everyone from reporters and political strategists to Lori Chavez-DeRemer herself will be able to scour our public fundraising report, looking for any signs of weakness in our campaign.

I need the help of this grassroots team to ensure that they don’t find any. Please, team, will you chip in $25 right now to make sure we show the strength of our movement and ensure that our opponents know we are going to win in November?

In a TOSS-UP district like ours, that could help determine the House Majority, everyone will be looking through our report to assess whether our campaign has what it takes to defeat Rep. Chavez-DeRemer and flip OR-05 blue in November. Any signs of weakness could hurt our campaign.

Here’s where I need the full support of this grassroots team: Our campaign is running $9,263 behind where we need to be when we publish our report. 

That’s why I’m coming to you personally. With just a few days to go before the quarter ends, I need your help. Can I count on you to pitch in $25 to help us catch up before our end-of-quarter deadline this Sunday?

Thank you for being such an important part of my campaign.

Janelle
