Hi John, my friend Martin Sheen and I were on MSNBC just last week, and I wanted to send you the cliff notes of what we covered with Lawrence O'Donnell:

This race will decide Senate control – Ohio is officially the ONLY toss-up according to “Sabato's Crystal Ball,” so we must win, or Republicans will flip the Senate and take our country backward.

Polls show I'm 1 point behind my opponent and that this race will come down to a hair.

We're being buried on the airwaves after Republicans outspent us 3-to-1, and this is now officially the most expensive Senate race in history.

We have a plan to turn this around, but with only 1 week left until Election Day, we need to hit our urgent $500,000 goal before midnight tomorrow to make it happen. That's why I'm personally asking, friend: Will you please chip in $5 – or our average donation of $26 – to split between our campaign and Catherine Cortez Masto's to help us fight back, win in Ohio, and keep the Senate blue?

Thanks,

Sherrod
