We’re in a bit of a jam, Herbert.

With Early Voting already underway and Election Day around the corner, the cost of airtime to run our TV ads is skyrocketing.

I thought keeping our ads on the air was expensive before, but we just crunched the numbers to figure out how much we need to keep them up through November 5th, and yikes. It’s a lot.

The bad news is we need to raise another $200,000, before our very last end of month deadline. The worse news is that if we don’t do it before midnight, we risk going dark at the worst possible time.

We know our TV ads work because this race is neck-and-neck despite Larry Hogan’s billionaire backers outspending us 3-to-1. But if we have to pull down our ads in the last 11 days before the election, we risk letting Hogan take the lead with only weeks to go. Can you split $25 between my campaign and Johnny O to help us hit our final End of Month goal and fully fund our TV ads?

Thank you, Herbert!
