John --

Tomorrow night is the very first fundraising deadline of our campaign, and the money we raise right now will have an outsized impact on how successful we’ll be in our efforts to win this race.

We’ll explain why in just a moment, but first we wanted to ask you to chip in to help us reach our monthly fundraising goal before tomorrow night’s deadline.

One of the best indicators of a strong campaign, especially for first-time candidates like Paul, is how much money they raise in the very beginning. When we’re able to put up strong fundraising numbers, it shows our viability, which then convinces more and more people to invest in our race.

On top of that, early donations can really jumpstart a campaign and give them the early boost they need to build strong campaign infrastructure. We’ll only defeat the incumbent if we make early, significant investments in the critical voter outreach resources that will allow us to reach as many voters as possible before Election Day.

This is where you come in, John.

We’re going to close the books on our October numbers at midnight tomorrow, but as it stands we’re about $7,500 short of what we were expecting to raise from emails like this. Will you make a donation of any amount today to help us get the early edge we need to win this race?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thank you for your support,
