We expected to begin October with a surge of grassroots fundraising. Instead, our fundraising dropped off quite a bit from September.

This race is essentially tied, and we’re already risking a big spending disadvantage from outside MAGA groups, so we need this situation to change. I’m working through the weekend to right the ship, and I’m asking you to do the same. Will you make a donation today to help us get back on track?

I know this isn’t the kind of email you enjoy receiving. It’s not an email I enjoy writing either.

And while this is a situation we need to take seriously, it’s far from dire and no one is panicking. Overcoming setbacks is part of every election (and, of course, part of life)!

The good news is that I have every confidence in our incredible grassroots team to get the job done. This is the same team that scraped and clawed our way to a tough victory two years ago — when we won exactly 50.1% of the vote — and I know we can do the same this year, if we dig deep and work at it.

So if you’re with me, and you’re able to help us close the gap as we enter the critical final month of this race, I’d be truly grateful for your help. Here’s a link to donate: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/salinasq42024#[email protected]

Thanks and enjoy the rest of your weekend,
