I only ask when it's important.

So when I ask you to pitch in $5 to my friends at iVote before their End of Month Deadline, you can be sure it's important. >>

There is no denying that is the most consequential election of our lifetimes.

I know much of your focus is on the presidency.

And while we must band together to defeat Donald Trump: We can't stop there.

There are essential races up and down the ballot that we must win in order to recover from the damage this president has inflicted and move forward as a country.

Attacks on our democracy and our values are happening at every level of government, affecting the work that must happen at every level including Senators, Mayors, and perhaps most importantly -- our Secretaries of State.

That's why I am emailing you today for the first time and asking you to join me in supporting my friends at iVote. They are dedicated to electing Democratic Secretaries of State and ensuring our democracy is restored. Can I count on you to chip in $5 before their End of Month Deadline? >>

This president and his enablers are doing everything to stay in power.

Not only is Donald Trump asking Americans to choose between our health and our vote -- he's asking us to choose between him and America.

This is exactly why we need strong Secretaries of State who will stand up to this president and protect our right to vote.

Secretaries of State oversee our elections from top to bottom.

Whether voter registration is automatic or complicated, whether or not voters face barriers at the ballot box, and even whether or not every voter in a given state can safely vote by mail.

iVote's work supporting Secretaries of State is critical. Because of the Democratic secretaries of state iVote helped to elect, citizens in Arizona, Colorado, and Michigan can vote safely and securely this fall. We need your help to make sure we have Secretaries of State that will help everyone vote in every state.

I know their work is critical, and I'm committed to helping. That's why I'm asking you today, too.

Will you chip in $5 before iVote's End of Month Deadline in 72 hours to secure our voting rights and defeat this president on Election Day?
