John,
Howdy! Kimberly here. I hope this email finds you well, healthy and safe.
I know everyone is struggling as we adapt to the new normal of life with COVID-19. I understand your first priority must be your own financial well-being. If you have a few bucks left after that, please help out family or friends in need or donate to a cause you believe in. If you’re in a position where you have a few bucks more left, please consider investing in our campaign for U.S. Senate -- because this pandemic has dramatically highlighted the need for better leaders.
To my knowledge Senator Ernst has done nothing to sufficiently assist Iowans and other Americans during this crisis. Voting for a $1200 one-time payment won’t cut it.
Many of the Iowans who were hurting financially even before COVID-19 will need far more than $1200 to make it to the other side of this.
Defeating Joni Ernst is no small task. Frankly, it feels crappy (remember, I don’t B.S. and I don’t sugar-coat) to ask for campaign donations right now, but the truth is our campaign must keep going at full-speed to the June 2 election - and we need your help if you are able.
Will you pitch in today to keep this campaign on track to victory? ([link removed])
Right now we have five full-time staffers. That’s a lean operation for a U.S. Senate campaign and yet we still WON the recent Des Moines Register/Mediacom poll! Your donations support our staff (I take no salary from the campaign), ensure we can beat Ernst and flip the senate.
Campaigns also pay for access to voter file information to conduct targeted outreach where it counts. That voter file alone is costing our campaign $60,000. Yep, you read that right. So when I say we need your help, I really mean it.
We don’t have the really big money for television ads, but we do plan to start Facebook and Youtube ads, where we can reach a broad yet targeted audience at a fraction of the cost of television marketing. Those platforms and Twitter have allowed us to gain the momentum to win that recent poll and gain traction with a fraction of the budget of other campaigns. I don’t like wasting money. The way we currently do elections is outrageous, and costs way too much. If we can win and not spend millions, let’s do that. I believe we can.
Your contribution of any amount goes toward these efforts and to our “people over profits” movement.
Can you donate today? ([link removed])
John, do what you need to do for yourself and your loved ones first. If you have the bandwidth afterward to volunteer, please sign up! ([link removed]) If you have a few extra bucks, know that we are forever grateful when you send them our way.
Let’s keep going.
Onward to justice for all,
