Friend: In a moment, I'm going to ask you to become a Founding Donor of our General Election Fund to flip Georgia blue and take back the Senate. But first, let me explain why your support is so critical – and what will happen if we fall short.

I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth – I grew up in public housing on the west side of Savannah, Georgia. But from there, I went on to earn a college degree and worked my way up to serving as the senior pastor at Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s church.

Now, I’m running to become Georgia’s first-ever Black senator, because the opportunities that made my journey possible, from Kayton Homes to Dr. King's pulpit, are growing further and further out of reach for too many people across this country. We have a chance to change that by winning this race and taking back the Senate, but not without support from grassroots folks like you.

That’s why I have to ask: Please, friend, will you chip in $5 or more right now to become a Founding Donor of our General Election Fund so we can power our movement all the way to November, flip Georgia blue and take back the Senate for Democrats?

The stakes have never been higher, friend: Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight confirms that Democrats can flip the Senate – and analysts at The Washington Post say that winning in Georgia is key to making it happen.

Democrats cannot take back the Senate if we lose this critical battleground state. Plain and simple. That’s why, with polls showing this race statistically tied, Mitch McConnell and the GOP are coming after me with everything they’ve got – and why my Republican opponent is spending $20 million of her own money to buy this seat.

So please, friend, this is important: With just 60 days until the election, will you give $5 or more right now to become a Founding Donor of our General Election Fund and fuel our fight to flip Georgia blue and take back the Senate?

Thank you,

Reverend Warnock
