John, this isn’t the email we were hoping to send you tonight. We just found out that Greg Abbott outraised us in the latest TEC reporting period.
Here’s the bad news: While we raised nearly $3 million dollars in less than a month, Greg Abbott raised $3.8 million. We were outraised again.
But here’s the good news: We have way more grassroots support, John. Abbott’s contributions came from nearly 25,000 donations while we received more than 68,900 donations.
We need to harness our grassroots power to make sure that we make up this ground so we aren’t outraised again, John. We’re setting an emergency goal to raise $100,000 in the next 24 hours to help immediately close the gap from this latest TEC reporting period.
Will you make your first contribution of $3 right now to help us reach our rapid-response $100,000 goal to fight back against Greg Abbott’s corporate donors?

In order to defeat Greg Abbott in November, we need to build the biggest, boldest organizing program that Texas has ever seen. But to do that, we need the resources to open field offices, hire organizers, and reach as many voters as possible.
There are more of us than Abbott’s mega-donors, John. Our only chance to close the gap is through strong grassroots fundraising. That’s why we’re emailing you tonight.
If you can, please add your first donation to help us raise $100,000 in the next 24 hours to fight back against Greg Abbott’s corporate mega-donors.
Thanks for all you do,
Team Beto
