John, our
people-powered movement to elect Beto needs to step up today.
Our February end-of-month deadline is at midnight, and we're still
projected to fall 7% short of our must-hit fundraising goal. [ [link removed] ]Will you
chip in before
tonight's deadline to help defeat Greg Abbott?
Millions of Texas voters will go to the polls tomorrow and see Beto
O'Rourke and Greg Abbott on their primary election ballots. What we raise
before midnight tonight will directly impact the last-minute investments
we can make to ensure a huge turnout for Beto.
The pressure is on — the media, our supporters, and our opponents will be
looking to see if we fall short of expectations. We've exceeded
expectations before,
John, and I know we can do it
again tomorrow.
[ [link removed] ]This is so important that Beto took the time between campaign stops to
email you earlier. Please take a moment to read Beto's email, and then
chip in $3 or any amount you can before midnight tonight.

Thank you,

Subject: We've begun to close the gap

Dear John,
I’ve been on the road every day this month making the case and pressing
our advantage.
Whether it’s prosecuting Abbott for his corruption and incompetence that
killed hundreds and raised electricity rates for every Texas household
(the “Abbott Tax”) during his grid failure, or sharing our vision for
Texas (great jobs, world-class schools, affordable health care), we are
making the case to the voters of this state.
From the Rio Grande Valley and South Texas where we were just rallying
voters during the only weekend of primary early voting to every other
region of the state, big city and small town alike, we are out there
connecting with the people who have the power to win this race with us.
And it’s not just me out there. More than 49,000 people have signed up to
volunteer for this campaign and we are putting them to work.
Over the month of February alone we’ve called, texted, and knocked on the
doors of more than 3 million Texas voters. And without spending a dime yet
on TV advertising, we’ve begun to close the gap with Abbott in major
public polls.
We’ve also received more than 200,000 contributions to the campaign,
keeping us close to even with the incumbent on our rate of fundraising
even though we have a much lower average contribution.
This is a great position for us to be in with eight months to go. As we
demonstrate success in volunteer sign-ups, donations, and turnout at our
events, we are giving people hope and showing that we can win. That
encourages even more people to sign up, donate, and turn out.
But it’s about to get a lot tougher.
We are going to be hit hard by Abbott as he attempts to slow our momentum
now that we’re entering the general election fight. There will be a
barrage of the same disinformation and lies (about socialism and open
borders for example) that you’ve heard before, only with a lot more money
behind the attacks.
I just need to be able to fight back so that I can keep connecting with
the people who are going to provide the margin of victory in this
election. They need to hear how Abbott has failed them and how I will
deliver for them.
[ [link removed] ]I hope you will help me with a contribution to ensure I have the
resources to mount the best defense during this campaign: a strong offense
that keeps Abbott on the ropes every day in every part of Texas.

Thank you for your help and support. I promise you that I will make the
most of it.
Beto
