Dear John,

Your support in the Democratic primary wasn't just a contribution. It was a vote of confidence, and it helped us win big.

Come January, I'll be sworn in as Wake County's next District Attorney. That happened because of people like you.

But I'm writing again because the job ahead is bigger than the campaign that got us here. Wake County prosecutors are carrying some of the heaviest caseloads in the state, and those backlogs hurt real people: victims waiting on justice, families waiting on answers. I've spent the past few months meeting with prosecutors, law enforcement, and community leaders to figure out how to fix it.

So I'll be direct: can you chip in $25, $50, or $100 today to keep this going through the general election and into day one?

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue, your donation to Wiley Nickel will process immediately:

Your primary support got us here. This helps make sure the office is ready to deliver from the very first day.

One more thing I'd love for you to be part of. On Wednesday, September 16th, we're holding a luncheon in downtown Raleigh with a special guest: Attorney General Jeff Jackson.

Jeff and I served together in the state Senate and in Congress, and I've watched him do this work the right way: serious about the law, straight with people, and never losing sight of who he's actually fighting for. He's the kind of person you want carrying the work forward, and I'm proud to have him standing with us.

If you’d like to join us, please RSVP here: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/0916-raleigh. I’d be honored to have you in the room.

Whatever you decide, thank you. Not just for a contribution, but for believing in this from the start.

With gratitude,
Wiley Nickel
