Did you see my message below, John?

With a recount on the horizon, we need to go all-in to make sure the voice of every voter is heard. But recounts are expensive and my team has to pay for every dollar of it.

There has never been a more important time to fight for democracy. I am counting on progressives like you to make sure every vote is counted in this race. 

So please read my message below then rush a donation to ensure we have the resources we need to file for a recount.

John,

The results for Texas’ 28th runoff election were just certified — and there is only a gap of 281 votes. And now, we’re officially filing for a recount.

South Texas isn't satisfied with the status quo, and we’re not done fighting. Can you help us get a head start on raising the resources we need by splitting a contribution to our recount fund and DFA? Every dollar we raise right now will help us make sure every vote is accurately and faithfully counted.

Our movement was never just about one politician — it was about taking on an unjust system that rewards corruption and corporate profits at the expense of the needs of working people.

With a vote margin of just under 0.6 percent, I owe it to my community to see this through to the end. Regardless of the outcome, we’re proving that South Texas isn’t satisfied with the business as usual anymore and they’re ready for fundamental change — this is just the beginning.

To help cover the cost of the recount, we launched a new fund to raise what we need to make sure every vote is counted and every voice is heard. We know Cuellar is going to spend as much money as possible on legal challenges, and we need to be ready to counter these challenges.

Now that we’ve officially filed for a recount, we are going to need all the support we can get to continue this fight. Will you split a contribution to DFA and the recount fund today?

This is our opportunity to ensure we elect a fresh voice, a pro-union leader, a champion for reproductive rights who reflects the future of the Democratic party. We are done with the status quo.

Thank you for fighting with us,

Jessica Cisneros
