Folks, fundraising emails are full of fake deadlines.

This one is real.

In just two weeks, we’ll face our first FEC public filing deadline. Every reporter, opponent, and potential endorser will be reading our fundraising report to assess the strength of our campaign. I’m asking you to chip in $5 to make sure that our report shows we have what it takes to flip Ohio’s open Senate seat blue.

I won’t lie, this race is going to be close. Tim will be neck-and-neck with his Republican opponent, and it’s going to come down to which campaign has the resources to spread their message and turn out voters.

We know Tim’s message is a winner. Ohioans can see that it’s high time we cut workers in on the deal, and they trust Tim to keep his promises. Tim has proven time and time again that he’s not afraid to say what needs to be said -- and that he walks the walk, too.

But if our opponents see in our report that we don’t have the resources to respond, they’ll slam Tim with attack ads and try to derail our momentum. One Republican opponent already launched ads attacking Tim within days of him entering the race!

We need to show them that we’re running to win and that we’re ready for whatever BS they throw our way. Can I count on you to chip in and keep us on track for a strong first FEC report?

Let’s do this,

Dave

Campaign Manager
Tim Ryan for Ohio
