Team--

Did you see this update from Gary? The stakes have never been higher -- and with thousands of Michiganders already casting their ballots, this election is well underway.

We're almost out of time and we're still $5,194 short of today's goal. Can you chip in $3 or more right now to help us win in Michigan and take back Senate control from Mitch McConnell?

----Forwarded message----

Friend – we’re just 25 days away from Election Day, and with Republicans going all out to flip this seat, I need to give you an update on our race in Michigan.

For over a year, Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell and the DeVos family have funneled MILLIONS of dollars into Michigan to buy this seat. My extreme right-wing opponent has outraised me time and time again – in fact, I was the only Democratic senator outraised this summer.

And after constant GOP attacks and a massive flow of dark money being spent against me, a new internal poll from my opponent now shows us statistically tied – and RealClearPolitics moved our race from “Leans Dem” to “Toss-Up.”

The honest truth is that Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight is right: Democrats have ZERO chance to take back the Senate if we lose here in Michigan. My far-right opponent knows it too – and that's why Trump has come back to Michigan again and again to try and flip this seat.

So I’m asking for your help today: Our team set a goal to raise $50,000 from grassroots supporters by this weekend, but we’re falling $15,423 short of our daily goal – and I’m counting on your help to close the gap immediately: Will you contribute $3 or more now to help me win in Michigan, take back the Senate and protect the future of the Supreme Court from Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell?

I know we can stop Trump and his allies from flipping Michigan red. But I know I can't do that without you fighting by my side. 

Thanks for being such an important part of this team,

Gary
