Hi,
I won't take up too much of your time -- I just wanted to send you a quick note and make sure you saw this email from Cliff last week.
I am fired up about this election. Texans are ready to elect Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, MJ Hegar, and Democrats down the ballot. We have a real shot at turning Texas blue -- but it's not going to happen unless we fight like hell until every last vote is counted. And that's where you come in.

We've been making great progress towards our end-of-month fundraising goal, but there's still some work to do. We can't afford to fall short -- not with only 64 days until Election Day and not with Republicans pouring so much money into Texas to block our momentum.
Thanks for stepping up today.
Adelante,
Gilberto Hinojosa
Chair, Texas Democratic Party

Hi,
Texas isn't "the future" of the Democratic Party. Texas is "now." More and more outlets -- including 538, The Economist and NBC -- are calling Texas a "toss-up." And every recent poll shows that Texas is a jump ball at the presidential level.
That's why Texas Republicans are running scared. Their major funders -- both in-state and outside groups -- are stepping up to pour millions into the state to try to drown us out, scare voters and block our momentum.
We can't let them.

Now, look, I'll be honest: Texas has never been the darling of outside Democratic groups. We've always had to carve our own path -- being as scrappy and creative as possible, and relying on grassroots donors like you, to power our movement.
At the start of the year, we had great ambitions to run a massive in-person organizing operation. But you know what they say about the best-laid plans! Once coronavirus reached our country, it became clear that we needed to adapt our strategy completely.
Thanks to your help and support, we were able to pivot and not skip a beat.
We've called more than a million voters. Texted more than 1.5 million voters. Mailed more than 818,000 voter registration cards and more than 250,000 National Change of Address voter registration applications in just the past two weeks. And this team has reached every grassroots fundraising goal we've set.
Now, with just 69 days until Election Day, you know the Republicans are going to pull out all the stops. That's why we can't afford to take our foot off the gas. Not for one second.
In the fight,
Cliff Walker
