John,

I'm Sen. Maggie Hassan from New Hampshire, and I'm running for reelection. Mitch McConnell and his special-interest allies know how important my race is in New Hampshire – that's why they are already running attack ads against me, 18 months before Election Day. And I need your help to fight back.

We're in a tough spot: Millions from GOP outside groups are pouring in, and Senate control could come down to what happens here. Just 1,017 votes decided New Hampshire's Senate seat in 2016, one of the closest races in history. 

I know this won't be easy: Our race is being called one of the Republicans' best opportunities to pick up a Senate seat – and they won't go down without a fight. Republicans only need one seat to take back the Senate majority
– and experts say they are favored to do it.

We cannot let the one seat that hands Mitch McConnell the Senate be New Hampshire – and I know that I can't do this alone. That's why Catherine suggested I reach out to you for help. Will you give $5, $10 – anything you can spare – right now to help me defend our Democratic Senate majority?

Campaigns like ours depend on grassroots supporters like you to keep us going. Since you're one of Catherine's biggest supporters, can I count on your support to help keep New Hampshire blue and defend our Democratic Senate majority?

Thank you so much for your support.

With every good wish,
Maggie Hassan
