Dear MoveOn member,
HUGE news: A brand-new Reuters/Ipsos poll shows Vice President Kamala
Harris is leading Donald Trump in the polls 44%-42%.^1
That comes after Harris raised more than $100 million in the first 48
hours of her campaign—shattering records and raising more money than any
other presidential campaign in American history.^2
A Salon headline put it this way: "Kamala Harris has Donald Trump running
scared."^3
Trump is so afraid of Harris that he is now scrambling to change the
debate rules. In a desperate screed on Truth Social, Trump said he wants
the debate to be hosted by Fox News instead of ABC, as he had previously
agreed.^4
And Trump is reportedly even second-guessing his pick for vice
president.^5
John, the outpouring of support and energy for Vice President
Harris has Trump petrified. But we can't let up now.
Despite the huge uptick in energy, we are in uncharted territory and have
only 103 days left until Election Day—and a huge amount of work to do to
reach the critical voters in battleground states who will decide this
election.
That's why we are asking you to continue the momentum by donating today to
MoveOn's $32 million campaign to drive up voter turnout, elect Harris,
defeat Trump, and deliver a massive blow to MAGA this November. Will you
start a $5 monthly donation from now until Election Day?
[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in monthly.
[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
The polling toplines and Harris's massive fundraising haul aren't the only
pieces of good news.
In-depth polling on key questions shows Harris has big electoral strengths
that terrify Trump's team.
For example, while Trump had calculated that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s bid
would siphon votes away from the Democratic nominee, a CBS poll shows
Harris performing strongly in a three-way matchup against Trump and RFK
Jr. The poll had Harris leading the pack at 42%, Trump at 38% and RFK Jr.
at 8%.^6
In addition, Harris shows huge electoral strengths among key demographic
groups that will be critical to winning in November.
* Among voters aged 18-29, Harris leads Trump by 25 percentage points,
and nearly 40,000 new young voters registered to vote in the 48 hours
after Harris announced for president.^7,8
* Among Black voters, Harris leads Trump by 54 percentage points.^9
* Harris is also popular among Latino voters, and especially with
undecided Latino voters who will be the critical element in
November.^10
Simply put: Kamala Harris can win this election. And if we all do our
part, she will.
We can't return to Donald Trump's presidency and the daily chaos and the
struggle of stopping the worst of his attempts to divide us, further
dismantle democratic institutions, and roll back our remaining rights and
freedoms.
The white Christian nationalist Project 2025 takeover plan tells us
everything we need to know about the plan for a second Trump presidency.
We have to come together as a strong, unified voting bloc to protect our
future and elect Kamala Harris.
This is a historic moment and a historic opportunity—and momentum is on
our side.
Are you ready to get the job done? Start a $5 monthly
donation right now.
[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in monthly.
[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
Thanks for all you do.

Want to support MoveOn? The MAGA right is declaring war, and Project 2025
is their battle plan. Project 2025 threatens our rights, attacks
communities of color, hurts middle- and working-class families, and
undermines our democracy. But we will not back down or let Trump steamroll
our nation.
Will you start a monthly donation to power and sustain MoveOn's election
plan, stop Trump, and ensure Project 2025 is never enacted?
[ [link removed] ]Yes, I'll chip in $5 a month.
[ [link removed] ]No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
