Hey John,
I can’t believe it, but as of today, we have just three weeks left until Election Day, giving us just 21 days to spread the word about our people-powered campaign to Flip the 3rd.
Since I launched this campaign for Congress, I’ve been traveling all over the state meeting with Southwest Washingtonians where they’re at, directly hearing their needs and what they want from their U.S. Representative. Last night we had another drive-in town hall, an awesome way to safely gather with folks around the district and ensure I can continue to listen to the people and fight for your best interests in Washington D.C.
Meanwhile, our current representative, Republican Jaime Herrera Beutler, hasn’t held a town hall event in almost four years. She’s been a classic career politician, hiding from her constituents, lying about our records during the one and only debate she agreed to participate in, and supporting the Trump administration’s lawsuit to repeal health care from millions of people in the middle of a pandemic because she’s bought by the insurance companies and Big Pharma.
Look, we’ve put a lot of work into this campaign, and it shows: the latest poll has me only two points behind Herrera Beutler in the general election, and we’re considered one of the most competitive red-to-blue House races in the entire country.
But the GOP has noticed our hard work too, and they’re getting nervous: that’s why national Republicans are dumping over $1.3 million into this race to support my opponent at the last minute.
It just further goes to show why we have to keep up the energy in these final three weeks if we’re going to pull through and win.
Tomorrow is our very last FEC close-of-books deadline before Election Day, the last chance to show my opponent and the GOP the power of our grassroots campaign when our fundraising numbers go public one last time before voters cast their ballots.
Will you help us finish strong in these final three weeks and win on November 3rd by pitching in $10 or whatever you can before tomorrow’s deadline? Anything you can afford will make a difference in this neck-and-neck race, and I’d be so grateful to see your name on the books.

We came so close to flipping this seat in 2018, and I know in my heart that this time we can finish the job and finally give Southwest Washington an independent voice for the people.
Thanks for getting off the sidelines and standing by me in this critical election.
Let’s do this!
Carolyn
