Hey there - Eric here.

I just got this email back from my Finance Director, Ryan. We have fallen behind our final fundraising goal before the election and we might have to cut back our support for Democrats across the board.

I don’t want to do that. Ryan thinks that it’s too late to catch up because everyone is offline for the night. But if you are seeing this email, there’s still hope!

Will you rush a donation right now? I’ll be staying up late tonight watching to see if we make our goal, and I hope to see your contribution. Here’s my personal ActBlue link so I can see your name come in:

Thanks,
- Eric

Hey Eric,

Unfortunately, we’re pacing behind where we need to be. Donations have just totally dried up today -- I’m guessing folks saw some good polling for Democrats and are counting their chickens before they hatch.

I would send out one last email....but it’s already so late, I doubt folks would respond.

Hey Ryan -- How are we doing on our October fundraising goal? This is our final goal before the November election and I’d hate to pick up the phone and tell Democrats we’re cutting their support budgets before the fight is over.
