Oh fiddlesticks —

Our lead in the polls has shrunk. Trump was in Minnesota rallying his right-wing base again. My opponent is distorting my record. And Mitch McConnell’s dark money network is spending nearly $1 million on TV ads to sink our campaign and keep their grip on the Senate majority.

To make matters worse, we’re behind on our last full FEC fundraising goal with only a limited amount of time to get back on track. And the only way we can make up this difference is with a whole lot of small-dollar donations from folks like you.

So, here’s my personal ask to you:

Will you make a contribution of $10 or more today to ensure we have the resources to defend our campaign from the GOP’s attacks? This is important because Democrats cannot flip the Senate and end Mitch McConnell’s grip on power without winning Minnesota:

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Look, we lost ground in the polls, and a major election forecaster moved our race from “Lean Democratic” to “Toss-up.” But if we can get back on track for our goal in the next few days, I’m confident we will defeat Trump and win this election.

That’s why I hope you’ll join me in fighting back against the president’s latest attack by chipping in a few dollars if you can. Thank you.
