John,

Was emailing with Yvette (see below) about tonight’s deadline and wanted to loop you in. We’ve got just a few hours left until our end-of-quarter fundraising deadline and still need (we’re almost there!) to raise $12,963 to stay on top of our budget.

Counting on you to come through. Whether it’s $5 or $25, whatever you can give gets us one step closer to reaching our goal and fully funding this critical work.

With impeachment on the horizon, Republicans are preparing for the fight of their lives and raising buckets of money to hold on to their seats -- that means every dollar we raise tonight makes a difference.

Every gift matters in the fight against GOP mega-donors. Here’s the link to give before midnight: https://actblue.com/donate/dfa-em-190930-eoq-3

Grateful I can count on you.

-Charles

Love it. Short and simple. Members always come through for us during these tight deadlines. We need every dollar if we want to be able to fund all of our endorsements this cycle. esp. with this impeachment news -- we can’t afford to fall back.

Here’s my idea: why don’t you forward this email thread making a direct ask of some of our best supporters? They need to know, real talk, what we are working towards and it stresses the importance of giving today rather than waiting until later.

Thx for the update, we’re so close! Though I was hoping for better. Frankly, I’ve been hoping we’d bust the goal so we could go bigger in VA with the campaign plan. I can reach out to a couple specific DFA donors, but what do you think about just laying out the facts directly to members: We’re short the goal, you’ve delivered before, we need you to step up again.

Morning Charlie!

Have you seen our latest EOQ #’s yet? We’re close but not there yet.

As of 8:19 AM, we’re still $12,963 away from where we need to be by the end of this quarter. With the massive fundraising numbers Republicans are posting this quarter -- I hope our members aren’t thinking they can wait and see and give later.

We need to close this gap by tonight so we can approve full funding for GOTV turnout in Virginia next month. Thoughts on which members we can reach out to immediately?
