Earlier today, we checked our ActBlue donation data and received some tough news. Here’s a screenshot: This chart shows a steady decline in fundraising volume over the last two days. Most campaigns expect a so-called “summer slump” where their numbers start to dip as the weather warms up because folks are spending time outdoors and away from their inbox. The problem is that we weren't expecting to see a slowdown at this critical time. You see, Sarah has her first televised debate of the campaign tomorrow night. With our race at the top of the GOP's list of defensive priorities, it's only a matter of time before they start attacking us in order to prop up Ron Johnson and blunt our momentum. We're hoping for a boost in grassroots donations going into the debate — and coming out of it. If every person receiving this email today chipped in at least $5, including you, we would turn this trend around in no time at all. So, what do you say? If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
We have real momentum in this race, but we need to keep it up to win. Since Sarah isn’t taking any money from corporate PACs, our campaign relies on grassroots contributions from folks like you to keep our fundraising on track so we can defeat Ron Johnson. Thanks for all you do, Team Sarah
