Just $4, friend.

That's all I ask you to chip in to my campaign today – because we only have four days to close the gap on my $100,000 year-end goal ahead of our most important public reporting deadline yet in the governor's race.

Now, I know $4 might not sound like much and that four days might seem like plenty for a movement as big as ours to make up the shortfall in time. 

But we can't afford to squander a second of it – and here are four reasons why:

1️⃣  As soon as the ball drops on New Year's Eve, we close the books for 2025 and hand them over to the Colorado Secretary of State for public release.

2️⃣  Once our data goes live, everyone with skin in the game will look to see if we have the grassroots strength to maintain our lead as we officially kick off the 2026 election cycle.

3️⃣  When it comes to winning elections, perception is reality. So if we reach our ambitious $100,000 goal on time, it'll be seen as cold, hard proof that our grassroots movement has the resources to assemble the manpower, outreach and enthusiasm it'll take to emerge victorious on election night.

4️⃣  But if our records show we fell short of our final goal for 2025, it'll be taken as a sign we're on the back foot as we hit the 2026 campaign trail – and our opponents will not hesitate to capitalize.

To build the resources we'll need to engage undecided voters, get our ads on screens statewide and keep up the momentum we've created this year all the way to the finish line, reaching our $100,000 goal in the next four days is vital.

And if thousands of people like you give $4 alongside you, it'll add up fast – so if you've been waiting for when your pocket change can make the biggest possible impact for our chances of success in 2026, NOW is the time.

Can you please make your first gift of just $4 ahead of our last campaign finance reporting deadline of 2025? With the support of folks like you giving $4, or any amount you can before 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday night, I'm confident I'll be the governor-elect of Colorado by this time next year.

Whether you've been with me since April or just found out about my campaign yesterday – thank you for being a part of this grassroots team.
