This doesn't make any sense, folks:

A group of generous donors is MATCHING every donation that supporters make to my campaign until our midnight deadline tonight, but somehow we're still short of our goal.

With Republicans naming me as a top target and experts rating my Senate race a toss-up, I really need your support to fight back against my self-funding opponent and the waves of outside spending crashing into Montana.

This slowdown could not have come at a worse time. While outside special interest groups ramp up with $4 MILLION in new ad buys, our fundraising is slowing to a crawl.

I’m not here to beg for a donation, but falling short has real consequences. If everyone who received this email chipped in $5, we could close the gap tonight, but the truth is not everyone will.

So I’m humbly reaching out to ask you, friend, to split a donation between my campaign and Catherine Cortez Masto's right now to help us reach this crucial target. Remember: Every dollar you give is matched, so don’t miss this chance.

Thank you for having my back,

Jon
