Hi, John — it's Aarica.
I want to share some numbers that are on my mind right now. Is it okay if I share them with you real quick?
4: We officially have four Democratic challengers vying to defeat Cori in our August primary election, and we can't take this threat lightly. One corporate-backed opponent even launched an attack ad against Cori already!
$12,000: We're racing to hit our $12,000 goal before midnight tonight and as of 12:35 PM ET we still have $5,772 to raise. Hitting this goal is critical to having the resources to grow our campaign and defend against attack ads.
$22.70: This is the average amount we’ve received from online donations this month. We’re proud of this number because it represents the 100% people-powered movement that's going to re-elect Cori.
There’s not a lot of time left — but if enough of us step up today and chip in — we can hit our $12,000 goal. Will you chip in $22.70 or anything you can to help us reach our goal by tonight at midnight and power Cori's re-election campaign?
As the finance lead for Team Cori, I know what this movement is capable of when we work together. We don’t take corporate PAC money or just power our campaign through rich people.
What we do have is people. When we put together our $1, $5, and $22.70 donations together — we have the power to create a new kind of politics that’s built by real people and to fight for the transformative solutions our communities need.
Together, we’re showing the country and the establishment how powerful a people-centric, grassroots powered campaign can be.
But here’s the challenge we face right now: We’re tracking behind on our fundraising and with less than three months until Election Day, we can't fall short. Time is running out, but I know if we all work together, chipping in whatever we can afford, we can hit this goal.
Let’s do this,
Aarica
Finance, Team Cori
