John – With the Senate split 50-50, Democrats will be virtually GUARANTEED to maintain Senate control if Abby Finkenauer defeats Sen. Chuck Grassley (R) in Iowa. Here's the latest update on this critical race:

FIRST: Abby launched her Senate campaign against seven-term incumbent Sen. Grassley with a massive outpouring of grassroots support – OUTRAISING Sen. Grassley in the last fundraising quarter.

THEN: Polling showed that Sen. Grassley is facing his RECORD LOW approval ratings – and Iowa's most prominent pollster pointed to real "weakness" in his reelection bid. Sen. Grassley has never been more vulnerable.

BUT NOW: After Donald Trump flew to Iowa to endorse Sen. Grassley, the GOP establishment is mobilizing to keep Iowa red at all costs. The Senate GOP campaign arm is already sitting on a nearly $30 MILLION war chest dedicated to taking back the Senate. But right now, Abby is falling short of the $99,000 she needs to raise before the year's final public FEC reporting deadline in just five days.

This is Democrats' best opportunity in DECADES to flip this seat blue – all while taking down one of Trump's top allies AND keeping Senate control out of Mitch McConnell's hands! But we simply will not have the resources to win in Iowa without a massive surge in Democratic support before the biggest fundraising deadline of the year. Please, before this major FEC deadline, Abby's counting on your support.

John: Can you make a $5 donation right now to flip this seat blue? Every dollar goes directly to defeating Sen. Grassley and protecting our Senate majority!
