Friend, I'm really worried about the news I just got from my team: We are being outspent and drowned out on the airwaves – right as Georgians are casting their ballots for the Jan. 5 runoff election.

This news couldn't have come at a worse time. My opponent, unelected Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R), is funneling $23 million of her personal fortune into this race – and Mitch McConnell is backing that up with $100 million in GOP spending. Now, a new poll shows me falling 1 point behind!

That's why I've never needed you more. I know I've asked for your help a lot – believe me. But when the fate of the Senate – our democracy – is on the line, it's what I've got to do. We are simply up against too much from the GOP, and without your grassroots support, we could lose.

We just set a HUGE goal to raise $800,000 by the end of December – but we're already falling short. $800,000 is what it will take to defeat the GOP, win this runoff and flip the Senate – especially with Georgians casting their ballots right now. So please, I'm personally asking for your help:

Friend, will you rush a contribution of $5 or more to help us hit our critical end-of-quarter goal – the most important of our runoff campaign – flip Georgia blue and take back the Senate for Democrats?

Thank you,

Raphael
