   We want to level with you about fundraising,
   John.
   No one doubts that we have the people or organizing power to build a
   movement to elect Beto as Governor of Texas. We’ve proven that strength
   time and time again. We have thousands of volunteers. We are traveling to
   every part of the state. And we’ve already raised millions of grassroots
   dollars — all without corporate PACs or special interests.
   But lately, our fundraising has slowed down. If we don’t pick up the pace,
   we will be heavily outspent by Greg Abbott. In a time of 30-second TV ads
   and super PACs, the only way forward for Beto in this race is to run a
   people-powered effort like we’ve never seen before.
   We have a big end-of-quarter fundraising deadline coming up, and we can’t
   risk falling short. So we need to try our best right now to close the gap.
   Emails like this one have generated about half of all the money we’ve
   raised so far, but only a small percentage of people reading any given
   email end up donating.

   part of this grassroots campaign? Make a $3 contribution
   right now to help give us the resources we need to compete.
   From the beginning, Beto said this campaign would be funded by real
   people. No corporate PACs. No corporations. No dark money special
   interests. We’re holding true to that promise. But we have to face the
   realities about the flood of money on the other side.
   Greg Abbott has over $50 million in the bank. That’s around 8x what we
   have right now — and that total doesn’t take into account the super PACs
   that will do anything to help the ultra-wealthy few continue to profit
   from Abbott’s corruption.

   outspent. Add a $3 contribution right now so that we can
   run the strongest possible grassroots campaign to elect Beto as Governor.

   We're dedicated to campaigning the right way — the real way — by traveling
   across the state and listening to Texans in every part of the state, and
   by relying on the support of regular, everyday people chipping in what
   they can afford.
   When Beto’s campaign succeeds and we begin a new era in Texas, one where
   our governor puts families and communities first, it’ll be because people
   like you decided to click on emails like these and make it happen.
   Thank you for all you are doing,
   Beto for Texas
