John -- Cal reached out yesterday about our upcoming FEC fundraising deadline, and we need all the support we can get to hit our target before we have to file our financial report. Can you help?
In just a moment, I’m going to ask you to make a contribution to my campaign for United States Senate in North Carolina. Let me explain why this request is so important:
We’re facing an all-important FEC fundraising deadline on Monday. It will decide whether we have the resources to build the kind of campaign that can stand up to Mitch McConnell and Thom Tillis’ dark money network -- or let them buy this Senate seat.
I’ve seen it happen far too many times in North Carolina, and I don’t want to let them buy another election in 2020, because that’s not how our democracy should work.
These shady tactics are exactly what's wrong with our politics -- and it's why I’m refusing to accept a single dollar from corporate PACs in this campaign. Instead, I’m relying on folks like you to help build a winning campaign that will overcome this kind of political corruption.
I’m running for Senate because I’m frustrated by the influence of special interests I see in Washington today. I know you are, too. The system is broken -- and we need to do something about it. That’s why I’m asking you:
The polls show this race is winnable because the people of North Carolina are fed up with politicians who don’t work for them. They’re sick and tired of leaders who do the bidding of wealthy corporations and special interests.
We all deserve better from our elected officials, and I’m running to be the independent voice you deserve in Congress today.
