John –

We're days away from the biggest FEC fundraising deadline to date for Arizona Democrat and retired astronaut Mark Kelly in his special election. And I've got some bad news: He could be in trouble and needs our help. 

A brand-new poll has Mark neck-and-neck with his Republican opponent – and now, they're running vile attack ads against him. 

This race is a toss-up – and Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight says there's no path to a Senate majority unless Mark wins in Arizona. With so much on the line, a generous group of donors has offered to match every dollar we receive before midnight.

Let me say it again: This is the most important fundraising deadline Mark has faced – and falling short now could mean the difference between winning and losing. John, match opportunities like this are rare, which is why I'm asking you to make your gift go twice as far for taking back the Senate. There's no way Mark can make up the ground without Democrats like you giving now.

We can't afford another two years of a Mitch McConnell-led Senate: Please, will you rush $5 or more before this must-hit FEC deadline and DOUBLE every dollar to help Mark flip Arizona blue, ensure Democrats can take back the Senate and protect the Supreme Court?

Thanks for helping Democrats flip the Senate blue. Your support is more important now than ever. 

¡La lucha sigue! The fight continues!
