Friend – our opponent announced he has broken fundraising records and outraised us for the third straight reporting period. 

I'll be frank, friend: Democrats will not flip the Senate if we lose in Michigan. That's why the GOP has made it clear they will dump MILLIONS into Michigan to defeat me and buy this seat to expand Mitch McConnell’s majority in the Senate. 

That's why this news couldn't have come at a better time: After learning we were outraised by our opponent again, a group of fired-up donors just stepped up to match all donations up to our $25,000 goal – but only until midnight tonight! 

If we're going to win here, I'm counting on supporters like you to take full advantage of this match opportunity before it expires at midnight: Will you give $3 or more now – and have every dollar DOUBLED – to defend Michigan's Senate seat and take back the Senate for Democrats?

Losing in Michigan would mean McConnell gets another two years of Senate control – more than enough time to confirm even more extremist Supreme Court justices and succeed in dismantling the ACA. It's never been more important for Democrats to win back the Senate majority.

The good news is Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight reports Democrats have a path to take back the Senate, but we must first win in Michigan. But here's the deal – in a race this close, every single dollar matters when the future of the Senate is at stake.

If we're going to win in Michigan and take back the Senate for Democrats, I'll need you with me. This rare match opportunity is only on the table until midnight tonight, so I'm counting on you to take full advantage before it's too late:

Please, rush $3 right now – anything you can spare before midnight – and have your gift DOUBLED to defend Michigan's Senate seat and take back the Senate for Democrats!

Thank you for keeping up the fight.
