Friends —

I'm sure this isn't the only email in your inbox letting you know that we're 100 days away from the November election. I hope you'll take some time to read about our strategy for Mark Warner's re-election campaign.

I am going to ask for your support to keep this campaign moving forward, but first I want to take a moment to congratulate our team on the hard work they've done and explain the path forward we've charted.

Working with the Virginia Coordinated Campaign, we've already reached impressive levels of voter contact, including:

• Over 2 million text messages exchanged with Virginia voters;
• Over 2,000 virtual events across the statewide organizing campaign;
• Over 100,000 phone calls made to Virginia voters;
• And over 700 volunteers activated to elect Democrats up and down the ticket.

But I know that to win this Fall, we need some help to keep the momentum going.

There's no doubt about it: 2020 looks different. We're facing a global pandemic. Instead of rallies and parades, our team has pivoted to online events, virtual town halls, and voter communication over text and by phone instead of face-to-face.

And, looking forward to November, I know folks are concerned about how to safely cast their ballot. We've adjusted our voter education efforts to include more information about all of the options to vote in Virginia, whether that's with a no-excuse absentee ballot, early in-person, or in-person on Election Day.

I remember Mark's 2014 campaign — he won by less than 1%. That's why we can't take anything for granted, especially during this massive shift in campaign strategy. I am so proud of this team for rising to the challenge. Now, I'm asking for your help to keep this campaign moving forward.

Here's that ask I promised at the top of the email: if you support Mark and want to protect the progress we've made in Virginia, will you contribute to Mark's re-election campaign if you have the means?

I've said it before, but it bears repeating: supporters like you are what keeps us going, Friend. I appreciate you taking the time to read more about our path forward.

Thank you for your continued support.

—Bruce, Team Warner Campaign Manager
