John,

We're halfway through August -- but unfortunately, we're not halfway to meeting our fundraising goal for the month.

That's a huge problem because we're ALSO over halfway through the FEC financial quarter. If we don't majorly ramp up our efforts, we likely won't be able to reach our overall fundraising goal for the quarter before the deadline hits.

This is one of the only toss-up races in the nation -- if we don't meet this critical benchmark and release strong end-of-quarter numbers, we'll look vulnerable and outside groups will rush to help Elaine's Republican opponent.

National Republicans have already spent $500,000 attacking Elaine, and a powerful conservative super PAC just pledged to spend another $2.8 million against her this fall. We need you in this fight -- will you chip in and help us raise $7,050 more to reach our mid-quarter fundraising goal?

Elaine won this seat by just 2 points in 2018. It looks like it will be even closer this time -- but we know that this team is ready to fight back HARDER to defend our district.

Let's do this,

Team Elaine
