Hi John - If we haven’t met yet, I’m Jeremy Thompson—Mel’s campaign manager and best friend. We’re approaching a critical deadline: our final end-of-quarter report to the Federal Election Commission (FEC). At exactly 11:59 PM ET on Monday, we have to disclose every dollar raised over the last three months. It’s a make-or-break moment for the campaign. I’ve been crunching the numbers, and to be 100% transparent, we’ve allocated every remaining dollar in our budget to key campaign efforts—voter outreach texts, ads, literature, and, most importantly, paying our hardworking staff. But here’s the honest truth: after that, there won’t be a cent left. |
