John,

We're just over one month into our general election campaign to keep the 49th blue, and Fox News has officially weighed in. They’ve listed our district as a toss-up headed into November.

Here’s an update on where the rest of the ratings stand:
 
** updated 7.20.22 **
CA-49 General Election Ratings
Cook Political Report: Lean Democrat
Sabato’s Crystal Ball: Lean Democrat
CalMatters: Toss-up
Real Clear Politics: Toss-up
Fox News: Toss-up

Normally, we take anything that comes out of this "news" network with a grain of salt, but these results are in-line with what we all know about this race: It’s going to be close.

You can bet our opponent has already sent these ratings to each and every Trump-aligned megadonor in the country. His local support is thin, so the strategy is to convince outside spenders to dump MILLIONS in this race to replace me.

Here's the problem, John, that strategy is actually working. We're already facing $2.3 million in outside spending, and this could be the green light they've been waiting for to launch their next wave of attacks.

We're rolling out TV ads, digital ads, mailers, field outreach, and a large-scale yard sign program to counter these attacks, and get the truth out about my record. If we’re going to succeed, I’ll need your help:

We set a goal of bringing in another $50,000 before the end-of-month deadline to keep our momentum going. Can you make a $3 donation today?

With gratitude,
