I want to start this email by saying thank you, because our campaign wouldn’t be where we are today without your support.

Because of folks like you, I am your presumptive Democratic nominee and am running head-to-head against Donald Trump. Tomorrow marks halfway through the first full month of the general election, and if you can spare it, I hope you’ll chip in $5 to help us stay on track this month. I may even give you a call to say thanks myself.

I want you to know that in this general election, I’m not changing my focus as a candidate. I’m not focused on the polls, and whether I’m up a point in one state or down a point in another. I’m not focused on the pundits’ commentary, because as you know, they’ve mistakenly counted us out at least once before.

Here’s what I am focused on: You. Your needs. Your family. Your community. Because I’m so grateful for you. Grassroots supporters like yourself have fueled this campaign from the day I announced I was running, and I know that your support is our biggest strength in the battle for the soul of this nation.

So only if you’re able to, I’m asking you to step up once again for our campaign today. I know that it’s a sacrifice to contribute during this very difficult time, and I don’t enjoy asking for money now or ever. But, we have to keep growing our campaign and building our coalition to win this November. And that takes a lot of resources.

If you are in a comfortable position to donate to the campaign today, can you pitch in $5 to keep our campaign on track this month? My team is going to pick a few folks who donate through this email for me to personally call and say thank you:

Thanks again. We may all be physically apart right now, but we’re in this fight together, and I’m honored to have your support.

Joe Biden
