Friend, I have an important question: Can you chip in a split donation of just $10 right now between my campaign and Brady PAC to help me hit my $500,000 fundraising goal before midnight tonight so we can defeat Ted Cruz and keep our Senate majority?

I am sorry to be so frank with you, friend, but here's why that $10 is more critical than ever before:

- Ted Cruz won by just 2.6% in his last election.

- Experts are calling him the most vulnerable GOP Senator in the country.

- A brand new poll has me UP 1 POINT against Ted.

- And if we win here in Texas, Democrats are virtually guaranteed to hold the Senate.

Seriously, just $10 can make a HUGE difference to our grassroots campaign.

I know it might not sound like much when you think of the tens of millions Cruz has raised. But it adds up! If everyone reading this chips in $10, we'll reach our $500,000 goal in a matter of minutes, and we'll be that much closer to beating Ted Cruz and protecting the Senate.

So with just over a week until Election Day, don't wait: Will you give just $10 so that I can keep up with Ted's millions, reach voters in every corner of Texas, and help Democrats protect the Senate? In a race this close and this expensive, I can't get to the finish line without supporters like you, friend. →
