John, I am kindly asking for just two minutes of your time to explain why I am asking you to chip in $5 to my campaign.

Thursday marks a critical moment in our race against Ted Cruz because I’m up against my FINAL end-of-month deadline of my campaign.

To pull ahead and actually win this race on November 5, we need to be able to fight back against the millions of dollars' worth of attack ads Cruz is running against me. But in order to do that, we have to raise every cent of our $3,000,000 goal between now and Thursday. 

This is the best chance we’ve ever had as Texans to get rid of Ted Cruz, bring real leadership to Texas, and save our Democratic Senate majority in the process. We can't let this opportunity slip through our fingers.

Please, will you rush $5 or more right now to help me reach this crucial end-of-month goal, fight back against millions of dollars' worth of GOP attacks, and flip Texas blue? Every dollar will make a difference with just 10 days left in this race.

Ted Cruz is raising millions and millions to outspend us on the airwaves, and early voting in Texas has already begun. We have to push back against these attacks right now to have any chance of reaching these critical voters before Texans start voting in droves.

Hitting our final end-of-month goal will ensure we have the resources to send our own ads across Texas and show everyone that we can do better than Ted Cruz. 

My two minutes are up, so let me finish with this: I am SO grateful for you, John – and for this entire team of people donating when you can, whenever you can. We have built a movement to believe in thanks to you. 

Now I need your support more than ever. So make a donation right now – of $5 or whatever you can spare today – to flip Texas blue and save our Democratic Senate majority!

With gratitude,
Colin
