John,

We need to level with you.

We are dangerously behind our week-one fundraising goal. If we miss it – even by a little – it will be read as a sign of weakness by national pundits, major donors, and yes, Republicans who are already circling.

This is not a drill. This is the moment that determines whether Jasmine’s campaign launches with real strength or whether we start this race at a disadvantage we may not recover from. Just take a look at where we stand against our goal:

If you’ve been waiting to give, please don’t wait any longer. Rush $10 or more, split with Democracy Defense Action, as soon as you’re able >>

This campaign’s credibility is on the line so Jasmine is counting on all of us to carry this over the finish line tonight.

Let’s not let this moment slip away.
