The path to Election Day just got even harder, friend.

After a brand-new poll came out showing me one point AHEAD of Ted Cruz, he and his super PAC allies hit the panic button.

They're spending over $28 million on attack ads against me, all while Texans are starting to cast their ballots!

That means the four weeks between now and Election Day will undoubtedly be some of the toughest days of my entire life. But it will be a whole lot easier if you're by my side every step of the way, friend.

I need your help to make sure these relentless attacks don't go unanswered, and I need to raise another $267,500 by midnight to fight back: Will you rush $5 or more to help push back against these attack ads and make sure we don't let the best opportunity ever to defeat Ted Cruz slip through our fingers? →

Look, as a former NFL linebacker I've taken on guys a lot tougher than Ted Cruz, and I'm not scared of him or his deep-pocketed buddies. I'm ready to fight back against all of the lies and disinformation they throw at me, but I need your help to do that.

To win here in Texas, we need to spend the next four weeks pounding the pavement to knock doors from Amarillo to Corpus Christi, making thousands of phone calls, and airing TV ads in some of the most expensive media markets in America.

This all takes serious resources, and we just don't have time on our side, friend.

So please, will you chip in $5, $25, or anything you can spare today to help me fight back against Ted Cruz's attack ads, win this race, and finally give Texans the leadership we deserve? →

Your support means so much – especially in this final push. Let's do this.
