Hey, John. I wish I didn’t have to email you like this, but this is urgent: Montanans are already heading to the polls.

Will you please split $5 to help us win this race in 9 days? A generous group of donors just agreed to match all donations until the end of the day – so anything you can give will go twice as far.

Give me a minute to explain why this fight is personal to me, John:

My opponent is a wealthy outsider who wants to privatize and destroy our health care system, end protections for public lands, and make personal health care decisions for women. I’m someone who was born and raised here and will fight like hell for our Montana values.

But I’m up against nearly $90 million in spending from Mitch McConnell’s buddies. We’re being pummeled by their attacks – and if we don’t act now, that spending could be enough to tip the race into Tim Sheehy’s favor.

Look, I’m no stranger to tough fights – I won my first Senate race by less than 1 percentage point. But my back is up against the wall, and the only way we’ll win is through your support.

If you’ve been waiting for the best time to give, it’s right now: Generous donors are matching all gifts until midnight to help us win this race – so don’t wait.

Will you split $5 (becomes $10) between my campaign and Catherine Cortez Masto’s before midnight to help me win one of the most competitive Senate races in the country? All of our work has led up to this moment.

Thank you,

Jon
