Friend, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to deliver historic Democratic victories in this election, and experts say taking back the Senate will all come down to winning in Georgia.

But I'll be blunt: Winning here won't be easy. It's going to be extremely close. Democrats will only flip this seat and take back the Senate if grassroots donors like you pitch in everything you've got. That's why I'm writing to personally request your support for Reverend Raphael Warnock (D-GA), an outstanding servant leader who's running to flip Georgia blue and bring moral leadership to the Senate.

As the senior pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church, the spiritual home of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Reverend Warnock has spent his life serving others. He's already been endorsed in this race by Stacey Abrams and others – and he's ready to bring critical fights for justice to the Senate. If elected, he would make history as Georgia's first-ever Black senator. 

But his Republican opponent, unelected Sen. Kelly Loeffler, is spending $20 MILLION of her personal fortune to buy this seat – and Mitch McConnell is lining up the full backing of the GOP establishment to help her pull it off and keep this seat red.

Here's the deal: Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight says the Senate is up for grabs – but ONLY if we win in Georgia. Now, with polling showing Reverend Warnock and Kelly Loeffler running neck and neck, there's never been a more critical moment for you to support his campaign.

In a race this close, Reverend Warnock can't afford to miss a single fundraising goal between now and Election Day. Please, friend, I'm counting on people like you to give now so we can flip Georgia blue and retake Senate control from Mitch McConnell:

If you care about taking back the Senate for Democrats, will you rush a donation by midnight tonight to power Reverend Warnock's grassroots campaign, elect Georgia's first Black senator and take back the Senate?

Thanks for joining me in this fight.

Chuck Schumer
