John, we've got a bit of good news, and a spot of bad news.
First, the good stuff. More than 200,000 people have donated to Beto’s campaign, placing our fundraising at the top of a competitive field. WOW! Thank you all for getting us this far.
Now, what has us worried. The first debate required 65,000 donors to be qualified. The second round required 130,000 donors. If they follow the same pattern, it’s highly likely that the next ones will require 260,000.
That means we might need another 60,000 donors to get on stage for the future debates. We don’t want to leave anything on the table.
The majority of our fundraising comes from emailing you, our top supporters. We don’t accept special interest money of any kind. Not from PACs, corporations, or DC lobbyists. So no one else is waiting around to help Beto make up the gap if we don’t get enough people to give over emails like this one. That’s why it’s so important.
Add your first donation to Beto now to help us get to 260,000.
