Folks, I just got off the phone with my campaign manager, and she broke some tough news: Believe it or not, this race is now the most expensive Senate race EVER.
I know, I almost spit out my coffee when she told me.
But here's the deal: The GOP is zeroing in on our race because they know control of the Senate hinges on what happens here in Ohio. That's why they've named me a top target for defeat, and why they're making record-breaking investments to defeat me.
Let me make one thing clear, right now: The GOP might outspend us in this race, but they will not outwork us. If we can keep reaching voters with our pro-worker message, we'll win.
To make sure we have what it takes to win this race, my team and I have set an ambitious $3,000,000 end-of-quarter goal. And I'm counting on top supporters like you to help me reach it.
So please, I'm asking, will you split $5, $10, or more now between my campaign and Tim Kaine to help me raise the resources I need to win Ohio and defend our Senate majority?
