Hey, John, I know you have a million things going on right now, but I'd really appreciate just a second of your time if you can spare it. 

I am really starting to worry.

In a second, I'm going to explain why. But if you're ready to do everything you can to help me defeat Ted Cruz and flip Texas blue, please pitch in $5 or more right now.

We have a huge opportunity in this election.

We have a chance to make history and elect Texas' first Black Senator. 

We have a chance to help Democrats pick up a seat and defend our majority.

We have a chance to give 30 million Texans the Senator we deserve. 

And we have a chance to finally retire one of the most self-serving and divisive politicians in the Senate – and show the rest of the country that Ted Cruz is NOT who we are as Texans.

So, with this amazing opportunity in front of us, why am I so worried?

I’m concerned that some of you are sitting this election out.

Because even though more than SIX polls this past month have shown us statistically TIED, our fundraising has taken a huge hit in the last 48 hours.

We can’t let up now if we're going to win this!

Ted Cruz and his allies have spent more than $40 million on attack ads against me. I can only fight back in these final, critical days if we have the resources to reach every single registered voter in Texas.

Will you chip in $5 or more to help reach our critical $500,000 goal by midnight? Your donation right now will make a huge difference in the outcome of this election.

Thank you so much.
