John — this isn’t the news we wanted to share, but we fell short of our mid-month fundraising goal yesterday.

We want to be upfront, this doesn’t happen often. But our goal was to get 10,000 donations and we still need 2,616 more to close the gap to make up for lost ground.

So we’re emailing you for $5 to help close the gap.

You see, this campaign is fueled by small dollar donations from every day folks — not corporate PACs.

That’s why when we set goals like this, they’re real. Which means we can’t afford to come up even a dollar short.

So in order to hit our public FEC fundraising goal at the end of the month, we need to get the remaining 2,616 donations to stay on track.

Every dollar we raise now will put us in the best possible position to put up a big number at the end of the month. So we have to ask:

Will you make a $3 contribution today towards our June FEC deadline? This is important. We can’t afford to come up short when Mark already has three Republican opponents in the race trying to take back this seat.

If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly:

Every dollar you donate now allows us to hire staff and organize volunteers to run a campaign that is ready to defend Mark and hold this seat.

Holding this seat is going to take a team effort and with you by our side there’s no doubt that we can do it.

Thank you so much for being a part of this.

Team Kelly
