Hi there, Archie here — Tina’s husband.

Things are very different from the last time we talked, and this race has turned out to be a heck of a lot more competitive than folks thought — but we’re almost at the finish line. We just need to keep pushing.

As you probably would have guessed, Tina has kept her nose to the grindstone, working around the clock and fighting her heart out to help combat this economic and public health crisis. Hard work is in her bones.

I’ve always been blown away by how hard Tina works and how dedicated she is to helping others. But now, she needs our help.

Tina’s fundraising has hit a snag over the past few days. As we inch closer to the last two weeks of this election, it’s not a good time for any campaign to fall behind, but especially in a ‘tipping point’ state like Minnesota — which brings me to why I’m reaching out to you today:

Can you chip in to support Tina’s re-election campaign today? Every dollar you can give will allow Tina to keep leading the tough fights in the Senate and will be put to immediate use as we work to win this election. Thank you in advance.

Listen, I was serving up burgers when I first met Tina. We were in grad school, and now we’ve been married for more than 35 years.

When we moved to Minnesota the summer we got married, we were in our twenties with mounds of school loans and a beat-up orange car with no defroster. We were the kids driving with the windows down at 20 below to keep ice from forming on the inside of the windshield!

I just want you to know how proud I am of Tina. I wish everyone could see her as I do — the woman who loves her friends and family, bakes pies for our birthdays, laughs a lot, and wears her heart on her sleeve. We have always supported each other, and now I’m glad I can be the one who makes sure she eats dinner when she's home (though I still don't understand why she doesn't love my famous country risotto).

As a Senator, Tina is working as hard as she can to help the people of Minnesota and folks across the country. Fighting for affordable health care, paid sick leave, and so much more. That’s why I’m asking:

Will you chip in any amount you can afford to support her re-election campaign today? Anything you can give will make a meaningful difference.

Thank you for being a critical part of Tina’s campaign and for believing in her — just like I do.
