Team --
In a few moments, I am going to ask you to make a donation to my United States Senate campaign in North Carolina. We have an all-important fundraising deadline coming up, and I want to explain why this is such a critical moment for our growing movement.
If this deadline passes and our numbers look good, we’ll be on pace to win this race. We can build a campaign that can stand up to Mitch McConnell and Thom Tillis’ dark money network -- or we can let them buy another election.
The people of North Carolina are fed up with politicians who don’t work for them -- that’s why I’m running to be the independent voice you deserve in Washington. We have what it takes to win, so long as we do it together.
That’s why I’m asking you:
Can I count on you to add a contribution of $10 or more to our campaign before our mid-month deadline next week? I refuse to accept a single dollar from corporate PACs -- which means I’m counting on folks like you to pitch in whatever you can afford to power our movement.
Our team is putting together a long-term strategy to build a winning campaign -- and we’re doing it the right way, without relying on corporate PACs.
That’s because this campaign is about you.
Like me, I know you believe it’s time to defeat the political corruption and gridlock in Washington. I hope we can count on you to help us do it.
I couldn’t be more proud to have you on our team. Thanks for reading.
