This is going to be a long email, John, but I hope you’ll bear
with me.

Paradoxically, the level of cynicism about politics in this election means
that you, reading this right now, have far more power over the outcome
than ever before.

Before I tell you why, I have to ask: we’re coming up on our
end-of-quarter fundraising deadline, and if we’re going to win on November
5th, we need everyone who can to chip in $3, help fund our statewide voter
mobilization efforts, and defeat MAGA Republicans. [ [link removed] ]Will you chip in a
split donation between the Wisconsin Democratic Party and the PCCC before
the deadline?

Now, let’s get into some details.

There’s an inverse relationship between turnout and the impact of
campaigning. The fewer people paying attention, the more impact per unit
of additional work.

Take local elections. When nobody has heard of their City Council member,
they don’t feel like they know the issues, and they don’t vote. BUT that
means that a city council candidate can win her race just by knocking on
doors after work. Each knock is more likely to move a voter. And each
voter is more likely to tip the election. The impact per unit of work is
higher.

Which takes us to 2024.

Presidential elections are the highest-salience elections, by far. But
turnout in presidential years varies a lot from cycle to cycle. And this
year, an unusually large number of people aren’t tuning in yet.

What’s more, there’s a strong correlation between "paying attention" and
"supporting Biden." In fact, polls say that among Democrats, the people
paying the least attention to the news are the ones whose support is in
question.

This is what campaigning is for, John: informing voters. And in
this election, we have a unique opportunity to inform, persuade, and move
voters to join the fight for decency and democracy. But only with your
help.

When you [ [link removed] ]donate to the Wisconsin Democratic Party, your dollars help us
expand our reach – even more so because so many voters aren’t fully tuned
in yet.

To keep a Democratic majority in the U.S. Senate, we must reelect Tammy
Baldwin, who will continue to fight for health care, clean air and water,
peace and public safety, and reproductive freedom.

We must reelect President Joe Biden, who will continue to fight to bring
down costs, invest in American workers, and protect voting rights—or else
face the prospect of Donald Trump and his MAGA cronies deciding our
elections.

Wisconsin could tip the whole national presidential election – and the
margin here could be a few thousand votes. Which means a little can go a
long way.

John, there is a reason I call the PCCC a political force of
nature. I’m positive that if we stand together like we did in 2020, 2022,
and 2023, we can secure a brighter future for our communities, our state,
and our country.

[ [link removed] ]Can you spare $3 for a split donation between the Wisconsin Democratic
Party and the PCCC before our end-of-quarter deadline to help us persuade
key voters and spread the word about Democrats’ fight for freedom and
democracy?
