John,

I know my team has been reaching out a lot lately, so I wanted to make sure you had a chance to hear from me directly.

Just 4 days stand between now and Election Day. So far, we’ve seen an early voting surge -- especially among Democrats in our district. This is really encouraging news, but here’s the truth: It’s the last remaining voters who will likely decide the outcome of this race, and we’re getting bombarded with vicious attack ads thanks to Jay Obernolte.

We’re still running $9,391 short of the goal we set for midnight tomorrow night. Can you chip in $10 or more to help us hit this goal and then sprint to Tuesday?

From the start, I’ve been determined not to take any money from corporate PACs, because this campaign is about being accountable to the people of California’s 8th District.

That hasn’t always made campaigning easy. But so many of you have been there to support this campaign at every step of the way, and I’m hoping I can rely on you when it really counts.

We’re in the final stretch. Please chip in anything you can today to help us hit this goal.

We're so close!

Chris
