Team,
I know you’ve been getting a lot of emails from me lately. You deserve to know why.
First, let me say that, just by reading this, you’ve already given me your attention and your time -- something that is so valuable, especially these days. That means the world to me, and I’ll never take it for granted. Thank you.
I send these messages because this campaign belongs to you, and no one else. We’ve refused help from corporate PACs and federal lobbyists looking to buy their way into power.
This whole endeavor hinges on people like you. I’m writing to you to ask for your help, because I know I can’t do this alone. Every day I’m reminded that we don’t have the advantage of being a frontrunner or starting out with a vast national donor network.
I’m relying on people like you chipping in what you can when you can -- especially right now, just before Sunday’s FEC deadline.
The report we file after Sunday will tell the world a lot about our campaign. I can’t wait for everyone to see what we’re building, and more importantly, who’s building it. The DNC requires we reach 130,000 donors to qualify for the fall debates. We’re just a few thousand off pace right now.
So, yes, I’m emailing once more tonight to ask for your help to put up an impressive display of grassroots strength. And I’ve asked my team to fill my schedule over the next few days with phone calls to people who are pitching in when we need it most.
Make a donation before our FEC deadline, and I hope to be giving you a call this weekend to personally thank you.
Here’s to an incredible week -- thank you for doing your part to make it happen.
Cory
