Hello —

In just a few moments, I will ask you to make a donation to my campaign. I hope you'll give me a chance to explain why this request is so important, especially today.

Last week, Donald Trump came to Minnesota and attacked me personally. Now, I have no doubt Mike Pence is gearing up to do the same as he makes his way back to our state — right on the heels of his RNC speech tonight.

Here’s why: Recent polls show our Senate race and the presidential race are both in a statistical tie. A major election forecaster even downgraded our race from “Lean Democratic” to “Toss-Up” just a few days ago — and another said Minnesota “is the most winnable Clinton '16 state for Trump.”

That’s why Trump and his allies are pulling out all the stops to make sure they can flip Minnesota red. Flooding our state with more than $14 million, campaign visits, and enough momentum to swing this election in their favor.

But we have the opportunity to fight back. If we want to stop Trump and Pence from securing a second term, we cannot let them win Minnesota. I’m counting on you to help lead our campaign to victory. That’s why I’m asking:

Will you rush a donation to our campaign to stop the Trump-Pence machine from flipping Minnesota red and potentially securing a second term in the White House? Anything you can give will go a long way.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

If there’s anyone who knows how to hold strong and keep Minnesota blue, it’s this incredible grassroots team. Your support is the only thing standing in Trump and Pence’s way.

Thank you for all you do.
