Hi there, it’s Kirby, Michelle Vallejo’s campaign manager.

I’m grabbing my morning coffee and wanted to chat with you for a moment. Our biggest fundraising deadline yet is coming up tonight, so I just pulled our numbers, and we’re still 27% away from our $24K goal. Can you give us a hand with a donation of any amount right now?

Closing the gap to our $24K goal is the difference between winning or losing on Election Day. It’s the difference between flipping the House blue or enduring another term of dysfunction in Congress. It’s the difference between defending democracy or leaving it vulnerable to continued attacks by MAGA Republicans.

Tonight’s deadline is the most important one since we launched this campaign. When the clock strikes midnight, our fundraising numbers go public, and that means everyone — from our MAGA opponent to the NRCC to Republican megadonors — will see how much we’ve raised. If we show ANY sign of weakness, Republicans will pull all the stops to try and take down our campaign.

That’s why hitting our fundraising goals is SO important. Hitting our goals means increasing our likelihood of winning on Election Day and finally flipping the House blue again.

With less than 24 hours left until our end-of-quarter fundraising deadline, can I count on you to make a donation of $10 or $25 to support Michelle today? She can’t do this without you.
