Brandt —

In just a moment, I will ask you to make a contribution to my campaign for United States Senate in North Carolina. Let me explain why this request is so important:

We’re two weeks from Election Day. And right now, we need to make sure we’re bringing in the necessary resources to stand up to Mitch McConnell and Thom Tillis’ big money network — or else they’d get away with buying this Senate seat.

I’ve seen it happen far too many times in North Carolina, and I don’t want to let them buy another election right out from under us, because that’s not how our democracy should work.

These tactics are exactly what's wrong with our politics — and it's why I have refused to accept a single donation from corporate PACs in this campaign. Instead, I’m relying on folks like you to help us cross that finish line on November 3 and overcome this kind of political corruption.

I’m running for Senate because I’m frustrated by the influence of corporate special interests I see in Washington today. I know you are, too. The system is broken — and we need to do something about it. That’s why I’m asking you:

Will you add a donation of $2 or more to our campaign while your dollars can still make a meaningful impact on the outcome of our race? That’s just $1 for each week we have left in this election. Anything you can give would go a long way in this final stretch:

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

Chip in $2 now Chip in $25 now

Chip in $50 now Chip in $100 now

Chip in $250 now Another Amount

The polls show this race is winnable because the people of North Carolina are fed up with Thom Tillis’ weak leadership. They’re tired of leaders who do the bidding of wealthy corporations and special interests — who cave in to party bosses even when it’s wrong for our state.

North Carolinians deserve an independent voice in the U.S. Senate. With your help, we’ll make sure they get one.

Thanks for reading. And thanks for all you do.
