 Hey John, it’s Jon Tester.

I’m reaching out to see if you could split a donation of $7 or more to help us defend Montana’s Senate seat. Here are 7 reasons why your donation today is so important (that’s one for every finger!):

1. Political experts rank this race a toss-up, which means your gift will have a huge impact on our ability to raise the resources we need to win.
2. Tim Sheehy is wrong for Montana. He wants to privatize health care, sell off our public lands, and would support a national abortion ban.
3. Mitch McConnell is desperate to beat me. He named me one of his top targets, and outside groups are spending millions to pummel me with attacks.
4. Their attacks are working. The polls have tightened into a statistical tie, and this race couldn’t be any closer—your $7 will help us pull ahead.
5. I won my first Senate race by just 3,562 votes… and this election could be even closer.
6. We’re less than 100 days out from Election Day, and we’re falling behind in our fundraising. If we can’t afford to keep our ads up, our opponent’s attacks will drown us out. 
7. We can’t win without you. If every person reading this chipped in $7, we’d have the resources we need to overcome the attacks, break our tie in the polls, and win this race. But not everyone will, so I’m asking you personally, John:

Can I count on you to make a split donation of $7 or more? Your support today could mean the difference between victory and defeat.

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
