John, this is a longer email than I usually send, but I hope you'll stay with me because we're running out of time and this might be one of the most important emails you receive this year.

If you don't have time to read the whole thing, I understand. But please, rush a split donation of $25 or more right now to help me beat Ted Cruz.

For 12 years, Ted Cruz and his policies have harmed Texas families.

He's made it clear with every action who he fights for – and, John, it's not us. It's Ted Cruz.

I launched this campaign to finally retire Ted Cruz because I know we are ready for change, and I've spent every day since then giving my all to this campaign because I know we can do a lot better than Ted.

Since day one, we've defied expectations. We've gone from 16 points behind to tied to actually LEADING by 1 point in one poll.

And now Election Day is today, we're ready to do what so many have said was impossible: We're ready to flip Texas blue and send Ted packing!

But, John, I can't take this last day for granted, and I hope you won't either. If we are going to win this thing, we need to have the pedal to the metal to get my message out to every voter until the last vote in Texas is cast.

So please, don't ignore this request. If you wait for "next time" to chip in, it will be too late – and too late means another six years of Cruz's disastrous leadership. Rush a split donation between my campaign and Fight for Progress of $25 or more before so we can meet our $500,000 goal, defeat Ted Cruz, and defend our Democratic Senate majority.

Thank you so much, John– for taking the time to read this, for believing in me, and for being part of the movement to bring real leadership to Texas.
