Friends -
I get a fundraising report each morning — an important document that helps me set budgets in our effort to win this race. And one of the numbers I look at is our fundraising relative to the last month. This morning it read:
Down 13%
$ raised over the same
period last month
This is what we had feared. November is a tough month. It was in 2015. That year, we raised almost 25% less in November than the month before… and it hurt us.
We can’t make the same mistake again. Not with this momentum. Not with a real chance to WIN. So I am asking:
Poll after poll shows we have the momentum. We have an organizing advantage. We have an enthusiasm advantage. If we can keep up this fundraising advantage, we are going to win.
So please, help us start this month strong. It’s so important.
