Hi — Tammy Baldwin here. I’m reaching out to ask you to make a contribution to our campaign ahead of our final FEC deadline tomorrow at midnight. But first, I hope you’ll give me a moment to share why this is so important.
A lot of things are going to change after tomorrow. For the last time this election cycle, we’ll close the books, tally up our fundraising numbers, and report them to the Federal Election Commission. Not long after, that report will be made public.
This is coming at a critical moment — after Republicans poured $68 million worth of ads into Wisconsin, our campaign is on the ropes. For the first time, a poll shows me one point down. And amid these concerning polling updates, RealClearPolitics and Cook Political Report both downgraded our race to a “Toss Up.”
There is no way around it: If we fall short of our goal and post a weak fundraising report, Republicans will continue to ramp up their spending against me in these critical final weeks before the election.
Mitch McConnell’s super PAC just announced another seven-figure ad investment as their polling revealed Wisconsin is the closest battleground Senate race. They could drop even more money into Wisconsin if we look vulnerable.
My team tells me we’re not on track to reach our fundraising goal before tomorrow’s deadline, so I’m personally asking you to help us out today:
Can you chip in any amount before our final FEC deadline tomorrow? I need all the help I can get to keep Senate control out of Mitch McConnell and the GOP’s hands.

Time after time, this incredible grassroots team has defied the odds and made history. We’ll need to do it one more time if we’re going to keep this seat blue.
Thank you for everything.
