Hey my friend, it’s Ruben. I want to be real with you here:
Things are about to get a little crazy, but please. Stick with me.
Tomorrow, I face off against Kari Lake at our debate. That same day, Arizona starts voting. And a week after that is our final pre-election FEC filing. The last one of the race, officially.
I owe you some unvarnished honesty here: We’ve got to push incredibly hard to raise what we need between tomorrow’s debate and this next FEC filing. I’m writing in part to apologize in advance for how much we’re going to be reaching out over the next week.
But I’m also writing to remind you that there’s a reason we’re doing it. It’s not to annoy you or stress you out. It’s because emails like this, texts, digital ads — these are the biggest columns in our budget. Donations from folks like you are the main way we fund this campaign.
If I could win this race without sending a single email, I’d do it. But I can tell you with 100% certainty that if we don’t email… we won’t raise what we need. We won’t be able to reach the voters we have to turn out. We’d be setting ourselves up to hand this seat over to Kari Lake.
I can’t let that happen, and I think you agree with me there.
You are a critical part of this team. And with that apology, with this explanation, I hope you understand how important you really are to all of this.
Now, if you’re still here, and if you still have my back, I have to make a humble request of you:
Can you please, please, please make your first online donation to my campaign before tomorrow’s debate, before voting starts, and before that final FEC filing? We can win this race. But the only way we’ll do that is together. I need you with me.
