Hi John, we wanted to make sure you saw this note from Jared. We are just hours shy of a deadline that will lay the groundwork for 2022 -- and we need to make sure we hit our goal.

We hope you’ll read Jared’s email (forwarded below) all the way through, but if you’re ready to help our campaign keep this ultra-competitive seat blue, please chip in whatever you can right now to help us put up the strongest fundraising numbers possible at the end of the month.

Thank you so much,

Team Golden

Subject: The story of our district (and why we need your help now more than ever)

Friend,

Our team has reached remarkable heights because of your incredible support. Thanks to grassroots donations from folks like you, our campaign is one of the strongest in the entire country.

But that also means that we’re a top GOP target. And team, ME-02 is ground zero in their push to take back the House.

Here’s the short story of our district and what we’re up against in 2022:

First, we defied the odds and flipped this seat blue in 2018 -- defeating an incumbent for the first time in 102 years in our district.

Then, in their plan to take back the House in 2022, the GOP establishment named me as a top target and are rallying around my opponent -- the same one we unseated in 2018 -- to flip this district back to red next year.

Now, after looking at Maine’s new congressional maps and the dynamics of our 2022 race, numerous national news outlets are confirming that ME-02 is the most competitive seat on the map -- and that control of the House will likely come down to what happens in our district.

We’re facing our final public fundraising deadline of the year in just a few short weeks, and right now we’re still trailing behind what we were projecting to raise this quarter. I’m asking you, personally: Can you chip in to help us put up a strong fight and keep this seat blue?

Thank you so much for all the support,

Jared
