We have good news and bad news, John.
The bad news: Ratings site Sabato's Crystal Ball just downgraded our race from Toss-up to Leans Republican.
But here's the good news: A new poll shows us statistically tied with Garcia -- we're behind by just one point!
We've always known we'll have a tough campaign ahead of us to kick Mike Garcia out of office and elect a real leader for CA-25, but now we know we'll just have to fight even harder. We have a clear path to flip this seat from red to blue, but so much depends on how we respond right now in this moment.
It's never been more critical: We need our grassroots team to step up and rebuild the momentum we need to win this top-tier race. John, can you rush a donation of $5 or more right now to show everyone that we're in this race to win?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Now, the truth is, Mike Garcia does have one real edge in this race as the incumbent. He's got a LOT of money behind him -- he's raised $1 million more than we have over the course of this campaign.
And that's because Mike is fine with selling his vote to the highest bidder. He takes corporate PAC and D.C. lobbyist money left and right -- and the special interests know that he's on their side. That's why the NRCC just dumped $832,000 into our district to prop him up.
But we have a secret weapon, John: You.
Our amazing grassroots movement has grown and grown. There are now 30,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans in CA-25. And we know that with all of them -- and you -- on our team, we can take on any challenge.
If there were ever a time to support Team Christy with a donation -- it'd be right now. Click here to chip in $5 or more so we can take on Mike Garcia's donors and elect a leader who serves our interests, not special interests.
Let's get back to work.
