Friend: In a moment, I'm going to ask you to make a contribution to our runoff campaign so we can flip Georgia blue and take back the Senate. But first, let me explain why your support is so critical – and what could happen to the future of our democracy without it.

I never once imagined I'd run for U.S. Senate. You see, I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth – not even close. I had 11 brothers and sisters and grew up in public housing on the west side of Savannah, Georgia. But from there, I went on to earn a college degree and worked my way up to serving as the senior pastor at Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s church.

Now, I'm running to become Georgia's first-ever Black senator – because the opportunities that made my journey possible are growing further and further out of reach for too many people across this country. We can change that by winning this race, but not without support from grassroots folks like you.

That's why this news is so amazing: A group of generous donors is MATCHING all contributions, dollar for dollar, until tonight’s critical mid-month deadline! But this offer doesn't last for long, so I have to ask: Please, will you chip in $5 (becomes $10) or more right now so we can flip Georgia blue and take back the Senate for Democrats?

The stakes have never been higher, friend: Control of the U.S. Senate will be decided in Georgia, and experts like Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight say we can win – and that without a Democratic majority, President Biden will have NO chance to enact our bold, progressive agenda.

Winning in Georgia is Democrats' last and only shot at taking back the Senate. But with polls showing me with only the narrowest of leads, Mitch McConnell and the GOP are coming after me with everything they've got, and my opponent is spending $23 million of her own fortune to buy this seat.

So please, friend, I need you to take FULL advantage of this match opportunity before it's too late: With time running out before our crucial mid-month deadline, will you give $5 or more now – every dollar will go twice as far – to fuel our people-powered movement so we can defeat the GOP, win in Georgia and take back the Senate for Democrats?

Thank you,

Raphael Warnock
