I just stepped off the debate stage with Cory Gardner for the third time and here is what I want you to know:

Our campaign is in the lead, but Republicans are throwing the kitchen sink at us right now.

They’re flooding the airwaves with $30 million to tear down our campaign. Right-wing groups like the NRA have launched nasty attacks against me. And you can bet Mitch McConnell is ecstatic that the most recent poll of this election is within single digits.

McConnell is looking for any sign of weakness the GOP can exploit in the final weeks of this race, and if we can’t catch up on our fundraising fast, he just might get it.

The only way we can make up this difference is with a whole lot of grassroots donations from people like you. So, here’s my personal ask to you:

Will you contribute $10 or more today to ensure we have the resources to defend our campaign from GOP attacks in the coming weeks? This is important because Democrats cannot flip the Senate without turning Colorado blue:

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

Right now, we’re still leading in the polls, and the pundits believe this race is the Democrats' best chance to flip a Senate seat. If we can make up this difference in the next few hours with our grassroots fundraising, I believe we will win this election.

Thanks for stepping up today.
