Friend, I was in Wisconsin last weekend talking to voters about why they need to reelect my friend and colleague, Tammy Baldwin.

Tammy's seat is a top target for Mitch McConnell and national Republicans.

With our blue majority hanging by a thread, we can't afford to lose Wisconsin's seat – and with the Senate GOP dead-set on passing a national abortion ban, we really can't afford to lose a pro-choice fighter like Tammy.

That's why I've launched a rapid-response $10,000 goal to help her secure the lead and win in November. Will you please split a gift of $5 or more between our campaigns before our 11:59 p.m. deadline to ensure we keep Wisconsin – and our fragile Senate majority – blue?

Less than two years ago, Republicans won Wisconsin's other Senate seat by a slim 1 percent margin – so with recent polls showing Tammy's race statistically tied, we need to fire up every last Wisconsin voter to show up for Tammy on or before Nov. 5.

But Tammy can only reach Wisconsin voters if she has the resources she needs to get her message to voters, host rallies, and keep growing her voter outreach efforts.

So that's why I'm reaching out to you today, friend. After talking with folks in Wisconsin last weekend, I know Tammy can win this race.

So, friend, before time runs out on our $10,000 goal tonight, I have to ask: Will you please split $5, $25, or anything you can spare between myself and my friend Tammy right now? Her success is key to keeping the Senate blue.

She can't win in Wisconsin without you!

Thank you,

Patty
