Friends -
Earlier this month, Mandela announced that our campaign has received more donations than anyone else in this primary.
That's incredible, and it is all because of people all across Wisconsin and the country who have generously contributed to stand with Mandela. But now...we just have one small problem.
While lots of people are chipping in, our average donation has dipped, which means less money raised overall. As a result, we're currently not on track to meet our July fundraising goal.
So we have two choices:
Normally when we ask people to make their first online donation to the campaign, we ask for $3. But today we're going to ask you for $10. Because the truth is that we rely on the response to emails like this one to help fund the campaign — especially with the primary just two weeks way.
We know this is a big ask, and we understand that not everyone is able to give today.
But if you're someone who can afford it, we hope you'll consider contributing to stand with Mandela. Or perhaps contribute on behalf of someone else who would like to, but doesn't have the means to do so right now.
The strength of our campaign comes from the number of people who are getting involved to help flip this seat. Because unlike our opponents, Mandela doesn't have the ability to self-fund.
Right now we're at a very critical point in the race, which is why we need to ask you to do a bit more than you have in the past. So we're asking one more time:
With the primary two weeks from today, there has never been a more important time to show you're ready to send Mandela Barnes to the U.S. Senate. Thank you in advance for adding your contribution today.
All our best,
Team Mandela
