This is urgent, friend: The Washington Post says that Democrats HAVE to win in Georgia to take back the Senate – but my Republican opponent is spending $20 million of her personal fortune to defeat me, and I need your help.

Right now, polls show this race statistically TIED, and Mitch McConnell is lining up the entire GOP establishment to make sure his handpicked candidate wins and his extremist majority stays intact.

We need to fight back immediately – that's why we just launched our very first set of TV ads! But staying on the airwaves isn't cheap, and we're already facing a HUGE budget gap. If grassroots folks like you don't help us raise another $18,284 by 5 p.m. TONIGHT, our ads could go dark before the weekend.

We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to flip Georgia blue and take back the Senate – but to win, we've got to fight back against GOP attacks and spread the message of our people-powered campaign far and wide. Right now, a group of generous donors is MATCHING every contribution – dollar for dollar – and I’m personally asking you to take full advantage before time runs out, friend: Will you rush $5 or more right now – every dollar will be DOUBLED – to keep our ads live on the air, win in Georgia and take back the Senate for Democrats?

Thank you for coming through when it matters most.
