Here’s a hard truth about what it will take to flip this Senate seat:

North Carolina doesn’t do landslides. Multiple recent polls say our race is down to single digits. Major election forecasters have rated our race a “toss-up.” Plus, Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight released an analysis saying North Carolina’s Senate race is “likely to be very close in November.”

Experts are even saying North Carolina will be the most expensive Senate race in the country, and Mitch McConnell’s corporate donor network is spending millions of dollars on negative attacks designed to tear us down and blunt our campaign’s momentum.

It all comes down to this: This election will be a squeaker, which means everything we do right now will make a meaningful difference in the final outcome.

Democrats cannot flip the Senate without winning this race. And we cannot win without a lot of small-dollar donations from folks like you giving whatever you can to help us fight back.

So, we’re asking you to make a contribution of any amount before our end-of-month fundraising deadline tomorrow. This race is a TOSS-UP and everything we do matters, especially as Mitch McConnell and our opponent ramp up their attacks. Pitch in today:

The goals we set are important and real, and we cannot afford to fall even a little bit short with a race that could swing either way. Cal and the rest of our team are counting on you to step up.

Thanks for all you do.
