Hi John, it’s Mark Takano.

Did you see my team’s email from last Friday?

In case you missed it, a Trump-aligned candidate from a different district just jumped into my primary race.

Now, I’m facing a far-right challenger in a year where Republicans are pulling every trick in the book to flip blue seats and hold onto the House.

I’m not afraid of this fight, but I need your support to boost my campaign and help me defeat this opponent.

So John, can I count on you to stand with me? Rush a donation to my campaign now to help me win my upcoming primary, or keep reading to learn more >> ([link removed])

Subject: Mark is facing a new challenger in his race for re-election.

John, Mark Takano’s race for re‑election just got a lot more complicated.

A Republican councilman just announced that he’s running against Mark in the June primary election, threatening to roll back years of progressive policies and bring a far-right agenda to the Inland Empire.

Here’s what you need to know about Mark’s new opponent:

→ He’s a city councilman with no national governing experience.

→ He’s a MAGA‑aligned politician who works closely with MAGA acolytes Ken Calvert and Chad Bianco.

→ He’s a resident of a different district – and he’s trying to get constituents he’s never represented to elect him to a seat he doesn’t live in.

John, as the proud representative of CA-39, Mark Takano is committed to fighting for the home he was born and raised in. But with Donald Trump trying to interfere in our elections, this year’s race for the House is going to be historically competitive, and we can’t afford to lose this seat to a Republican. Please John – can you donate $25 to Mark Takano’s campaign to help him fend off this challenge and win re‑election? >> ([link removed])
