I know it is Sunday, but I wanted to give you a quick update on our campaign. We're midway through the month, and we're falling short of our fundraising goals at a critical time.

Here's the situation:

• Republican Beth Van Duyne has $2 million in her campaign account
• Our final FEC quarterly deadline is approaching on September 30
• We're currently short of our $5,000 mid-month goal

This isn't just about numbers – it's about momentum. Our financial reports will be public, and they'll be scrutinized by supporters, opponents, and the media alike. A strong showing could attract more support, while falling short could hurt our chances.

Can you step up with a contribution of $10 or whatever you can afford to help us reach our $5,000 goal before midnight?

Thank you for being a crucial part of this campaign,

Sam Eppler
