Folks, I have a big favor to ask:

Will you make a split donation of $12 (the price of one of my signature flattop haircuts) to help us reach 50,000 grassroots donations before our mid-month deadline? Montana's Senate race will be won by a handful of votes, and my team needs even more resources to stand up to the millions of dollars outside groups are throwing my way.

Thousands of folks have chipped in since we launched this campaign. And whether you've given $5, $50, or $500, I couldn't be more grateful to have your support. Your donation helps us show pundits and my opponent that we have grassroots momentum on our side.

Trust me, I know how far a few bucks can go: My flattop haircut costs just $12.

In all seriousness, we've got our work cut for us. Outside groups are spending up a storm to defeat me. My multimillionaire opponent has already cut his campaign $2.4 million from his own wallet. And virtually every election expert ranks this race as a toss-up.

It would mean a lot to have your support in this race because every donation goes a long way. Even $12.

So, will you split $12 or more between our campaign and Chuck Schumer to help us reach our goal so I can bring this race home? We've got less than 100 days until the election, so let's get it done.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately and be split between Chuck Schumer and Jon Tester:

Thanks for your support.

Jon
