Hey John —

According to my team, fewer folks have been opening and donating to our emails recently and as a result, we’re not on track to hit our critical fundraising goal before September.

Look, I get it — I know these emails can get pretty pesky sometimes, John. My staff may not like me saying this, but trust me, the last thing I want to do is bug you and ask you for your hard-earned money! But the truth is, these messages make a significant difference for our team.

You see, I’m not one to beg massive corporations or shady megadonors to cut me a check. Instead, my team and I rely on folks like you, who pitch in what you can, when you can, to power our campaign — and one of the best ways we can reach our supporters right now is through their inboxes.

When our supporters stop opening our emails, it means we have fewer resources to keep our ads running and power our voter outreach.

With Election Day just around the corner, it’s critical that we keep our campaign firing on all cylinders, but we can’t do it without you. That’s why we send these emails around and why your response to them is so important.

So John, will you consider adding a contribution of just $10 or more to help put our fundraising on track toward our most important goal before Election Day?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

​​Even if you can’t make a donation today, I want to thank you for taking the time to read this email. It really helps us more than you know.

Thanks so much. I’ll let you get back to it.

Lauren
