HUGE news out of Iowa, John – and it's not looking good. 

FIRST: After polling revealed more than two-thirds of likely Iowa voters don't want to reelect Sen. Chuck Grassley (R), Democrat Abby Finkenauer launched her campaign – giving Democrats the best chance in decades to flip this Senate seat blue. 

BUT THEN: Last month alone, the campaign arm of the Senate Republicans hauled in $13 MILLION to protect vulnerable incumbents like Sen. Grassley. It's a huge advantage they can use to dismantle Democrats' Senate majority.

NOW: Abby is falling short of the $75,000 she needs to raise before her biggest FEC reporting deadline TONIGHT. We are counting on your donation so we don't fall short. With Senate control split 50-50, every single seat is indispensable when it comes to protecting our Democratic majority. We are counting on grassroots supporters like you to help us fight back against GOP spending and help Abby win!

Remember this, John: If Abby defeats Sen. Chuck Grassley in Iowa, Democrats are virtually guaranteed to expand our majority in the Senate. But right now, we are being massively outraised by the GOP, so we need a surge in donations to hit the most important goal for our campaign so far:

Please rush $5 or more now – whatever you can spare before our major FEC deadline – to flip Iowa blue and defend our Democratic Senate majority!
