Friend,
I just heard from our finance team, and I have to be honest with you, friend: Our fundraising is just not where it needs to be if we want to stay on track to win. We're currently being outraised and outspent at the worst moment - right when a brand new poll shows my opponent up by nearly two points.
That's because after my hard-right opponent, John James - who says he backs Trump "2000%" - recently won his August primary, Republicans gave him a prime-time spot at the RNC, allowing him to fundraise on the national stage.
He's already outraised us five times in a row thanks to Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell and the DeVos family funneling tens of millions of dollars into Michigan to buy this seat for the GOP. And if we don't close our August funding gap, he could pull ahead in the polls for good.
Simply put, friend, We cannot allow that to happen. RealClearPolitics just moved our race from "Leans Dem" to "Toss Up" - and in tight races like this, every single dollar makes a difference. With Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight reporting Democrats have ZERO chance to take back the Senate if we lose in Michigan, what we do in moments like this could decide whether Mitch McConnell keeps his grip on the Senate.
We're beginning a mad dash to the finish line, and we need to show my opponent - and his wealthy backers - that we're here to win. So ahead of the most important fundraising deadline of our campaign so far, we need to raise another $6,500 before 11:59 p.m. tonight, and I'm counting on your help to make that happen.
Will you contribute $27- anything you can spare - to win in Michigan, flip the Senate for Democrats and protect the future of the Supreme Court from Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell?
