Friend,

Before running for Congress, I remember my inbox getting flooded with desperate, hair-on-fire emails from other Democratic campaigns at this time of year. 

 

To be honest, I hated them. The deadlines always seemed arbitrary, and they were often full of obnoxious scare tactics. In my opinion, Democratic donors have plenty of real reasons why they should support the cause. Exaggerating the stakes is counterproductive.

 

That's why I told my team from the start that we would do things differently. Yes, the stakes are high. But we won't feed into the panic you might see on social media or cable news that's caused distrust and dysfunction over the years.

 

So today I want to give it to you straight. We have six days until Election Day. Showing strength right now is critical ahead of our final GOTV weekend.

 

I'm not going to scare you into supporting us, but I do hope you'll send in a donation of $5 or more to help us meet our goal.

Here's a fact about our campaign: The *vast majority* of our contributions come in online and on emails just like this one. We don't have billionaires and big special interests backing us the way our opponents might. So when I say we're counting on your support, I truly mean it!

 

Thanks in advance for your support,

 

Eric
