Brandt —

I want to start by saying thank you. By opening this email, and maybe even chipping in at the end, you’re committed to doing the work to win this race. It won’t be easy work, but I know this election is probably personal to you.

With so many other obligations and commitments on your plate right now, I’m so grateful you’re getting off the sidelines. You have an important role to play in this election, Brandt, and I’ll explain more about that in just a second.

First, I have a request: Would you consider chipping in to support our campaign in the final days of this election? Your donation today will help us flip North Carolina’s Senate seat, and with it, the whole majority.

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

Chip in $10 now Chip in $25 now

Chip in $50 now Chip in $100 now

Chip in $250 now Another Amount

Our country is at a crossroads right now, Brandt. This is a moment in time that requires each of us to stand up and fight for the best of who we can be.

Far too many North Carolina families are struggling to make ends meet; teachers aren’t getting paid their value; folks with pre-existing conditions don’t know whether their protections will still be there after Election Day; and more.

Those are the voices I’m answering to in this election — not the corporate and special interests trying to buy influence in Washington. That’s why I have refused to accept a single donation from corporate PACs throughout this campaign, because unlike my opponent, I don’t answer to them. I answer to you.

The truth is, we don’t have to accept a system that drowns out the voices of ordinary folks. I’m running for Senate because I believe we can do better. We must do better.

But that means every small-dollar, individual contribution matters. And with just a few days left until this election is over, my team is telling me that we need to push harder than ever before to hit our ambitious goal of reaching 1,000,000 individual donations by the end of this month. So, I’m asking:

Can I count on you to make a contribution of $10 or more toward our last fundraising deadline of this election? I’m rejecting support from corporate PACs and relying on donors like you to power this movement — which means your donation will make a huge difference for me and my team:

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

Chip in $10 now Chip in $25 now

Chip in $50 now Chip in $100 now

The wealthy few who abuse our campaign finance system would love nothing more than for our campaign to fall short in this election. Why? Because I refuse to play their game. I want to make sure we win this election the right way — and with your support, I know we will.

Each time I send you a message just like this asking for help, you answer the call and exceed all expectations. That’s why I’m turning to you again today.

Thank you, as always, for everything you do to support our campaign.
