John,

I’m going to tell a short story about Beto’s first run for Congress, back
in 2012.

It was a very competitive primary, and Beto was up against an eight term
incumbent. I was the Campaign Manager at the time, but our team was small
– we only had one full-time paid staff member, and it wasn’t even me! 99%
of this congressional campaign was powered by volunteers.

But we worked hard. We knocked thousands of doors and called thousands of
voters. Beto himself knocked at least 16,000 doors. We were leaving it all
on the field, no regrets and no second chances. 

And when it came to Election Day, in the last minutes of his historic bid
for Congress, Beto stood on the side of the road outside a polling
location, flagging down cars so they could vote before the polls closed.
Here’s a picture:

That picture was taken 10 minutes before the polls closed. And, against
all odds, Beto avoided a run off by just a few hundred votes. Again, it
was a campaign powered by people who left it all on the field – and it
paid off.

So that’s what I’m going to ask you to do today,
John. Leave it all on the field. Do everything
you can so when you wake up on November 4th, you’re not full of dread or
regret.

John. We just need to turn out the voters.
Sign up for a phone bank today and leave it all on the field.

I hope that thinking of Beto, standing on the access road to a freeway, 10
minutes before polls close, doing everything he can to pull off a win,
inspires you in these last four days. I know it inspires me.

Thanks,

David Wysong
