John – I'm running out of time before my June mid-month deadline, and my campaign manager just told me we're still 7% short of our goal with just hours left until midnight.

This couldn't be happening at a worse moment: GOP outside groups have already massively outspent my campaign, Nate Silver said Nevada is one of the GOP's best pickup opportunities in November – and now, the National Journal has called me the most vulnerable senator on the ballot. 

If we fall short at this critical moment, our chances of winning and defending our Senate majority could plummet. We cannot afford to miss this goal, so I'm urgently asking: Will you rush $5 or more before midnight to help me make up this shortfall before our mid-month deadline and defend our Democratic Senate majority?

I know you've heard from top Democrats like Barack Obama and Joe Biden about the importance of defending our Senate majority – and that just isn't possible if we start missing critical fundraising benchmarks here in Nevada this close to Election Day. 

I'm not afraid of a tough race: In 2016 I overcame more than $50 million in GOP spending to win by 2 points and become our country's first Latina senator. But what I learned from that race is this: Grassroots support makes a critical, race-defining difference. Every dollar truly matters in this campaign, so I'm asking you to chip in before the clock runs out:

Please, John, if you care about defending our Democratic Senate majority, rush $5 or more to help me make up my fundraising gap before tonight's midnight deadline so we can keep Nevada and our Senate blue!

¡La lucha sigue! The fight continues!
