I know we send you a lot of emails from our team — they all land in my inbox too, John.

But our mid-month benchmark is just two days away and we’re not where we want to be.

If every person reading this email gives just $2, we’ll hit our $1,000 daily goal in no time at all. Can you help us make up the gap?

Campaigning as a Democrat doesn’t come cheap in Ohio. I know from personal experience what Republicans will do — and spend — to drown out our positive message.

But the power of our grassroots team can take them head-on.

If every person reading this gives $2, we can call more voters. If every person reading this gives $2, we can knock on more doors. If every person reading this gives $2, we can produce more yard signs.

Here’s the truth, John: If every person reading this gives $2, we can win this campaign.

I don’t take your support for granted, and I hate asking for your hard-earned money. But with our public fundraising deadline coming up, we need to hit our mark, fast. Can you give just $2 (or whatever you can afford!) to help us raise $1,000 tonight? »

Thank you, John.
