John,
When I decided to run for Congress and lead our fight to take back CA-25, I knew it wouldn't be easy.
I was prepared for the long nights of organizing, the tireless outreach efforts to voters across the district, and even the baseless attacks from my opponent. But honestly, I didn't quite expect the situation we're in now -- with a race still too close to call more than two weeks after Election Day.
Here's the deal: We need to raise $225,000 for our recount fund as this count drags on. We're still weeks away from a potential recount and a conclusion to this race, and our team of lawyers are racking up the billable hours every day. And let me tell you, good lawyers are expensive. But it's worth every penny to make sure every person's vote is counted and the will of the people is done.
John, will you chip in $5 or whatever you can to help support our recount fund?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
This has been a hard-fought race. And it's taken us a long time to get this far. So right now, we have to stay focused on the bigger picture. It's crucial that every voice in this district is heard and the people's right to choose who represents them is protected.
There's nothing more urgent than the call to protect our democracy. And that's exactly what I intend to do.
I know how committed the people of CA-25 and our team of supporters around the country have been, and I will do everything to make sure your hours of volunteering, your contributions, and your commitment to our campaign and our country are not in vain. The voters will be heard.
Please rush a donation of $5 to our recount fund so we can fight for every last vote.
Your support means the world to me, as always.
