Friend --

There's a reason you keep hearing from us about Dean's fundraising goals. It's headlines like these:

From the presidential race on down, the GOP, the NRCC, and special interests are already sinking money into negative ads and paid organizers in order to flip Minnesota and win seats like Dean's.

That's why we need to hit our goals. The other side is already mobilizing. And unlike us, their pockets are full of PAC checks and lobbyist contributions.

Before November 30, we need to raise $15,000 to stay on pace. When we're up against so much, we can't risk falling behind.

Or, if your payment information is saved with ActBlue, click below and your contribution will go through immediately:

Here's what we know: Minnesota is going to be ground zero for big money in 2020.

President Trump has made it a top priority to turn Minnesota red, and top Republicans like NRCC Chairman Tom Emmer have singled out Dean's seat as one they're dreaming of flipping.

We know that we ask a lot. But when you're not accepting a dime from PACs, special interests, or even lobbyists, every contribution matters. And so does every deadline.

We're reaching out early because it's important. Please help hit our November goal. Dean's counting on us.

Thank you,

The Dean Team
