[1]Beto O'Rourke
Hey John, Nick here.
I'll get right to it: Our next Texas Ethics Commission (TEC) mandatory
reporting deadline is coming up this Saturday, February 19, and we can't
afford to be outraised by Greg Abbott again.
As a reminder, here's what the last two public filings showed:
Candidate Total raised Time period
Beto O'Rourke $7.2 million 11/15/21-12/31/21
Greg Abbott $18.9 million 7/1/21-12/31/21
Beto O'Rourke $1.3 million 1/1/22-1/20/22
Greg Abbott $1.4 million 1/1/22-1/20/22
Greg Abbott outraised us in both filings since Beto joined the race, all
while adding to his $62 million cash-on-hand. But the good news is that
we've shown we have far more grassroots support than Greg Abbott.
Now, we need to show Texans that we can fundraise a lot faster than Abbott
and take on his corporate mega-donors. That's why I'm reaching out today
to see if you can help us pick up the pace and ensure we outraise Abbott
this time around.
[ [link removed] ]John, we've
set a goal to raise $250,000 by Saturday at midnight, and falling short is
not an option. Please, pitch in your
first
$3 contribution right now.
[ [link removed] ]Contribute $3
Your donation before Saturday's deadline is in investment in the campaign
we're building to take on Abbott. Every dollar will go towards building
the infrastructure we need to run the largest grassroots campaign Texas
has ever seen. And it will show that we can elect the first Democratic
governor of Texas in decades without a cent from corporate PACs.
We're already making history. We have over 44,000 folks volunteering —
writing letters, calling voters, and talking to Texans at their door. Beto
has already been to dozens of counties and met thousands of folks. And as
of today, we surpassed our goal of contacting 2 million voters in February
— and we’re aiming to reach a million more before March 1st.
But, if we're going to reach our goals and win this election, we can't
suffer a blowout on the money side.
This grassroots team has had Beto's back before, so I have to ask you
personally, John: [ [link removed] ]Can Beto
count on you to be one of the supporters we need to step up and chip in
before Saturday's TEC deadline?
Thanks for everything you do,
Nick Rathod
Campaign Manager, Beto for Texas
