John, the Koch network always has a plan -- swoop in with a truckload of secret money, flood the airwaves with lies, and swing this election for their handpicked candidate. That’s how they operate.

And seeing another major election forecaster rate our race a toss-up just gave them the incentive to drop a six-figure ad buy to try to save our opponent, Senator Thom Tillis.

Listen, I get it. I know it will be tough to outraise or outspend these guys. And the thing is, we don’t have to. We just need to focus on building a winning campaign. That’s why hitting each and every one of our online fundraising goals is so important.

John, this team has been incredible since day one. And if enough of us step up before our end-of-month deadline on Saturday, we’ll be able to stand strong against the Koch machine. So, I’m asking:

Will you help us fight back against this sort of corruption in our politics by making a donation of $10 (or more!) to support our campaign? I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t important. Donate today.

There is a real opening for Democrats in North Carolina, but shadowy players like the Koch network are pulling out all the stops to close it.

Don’t let them.
