John,
July is notoriously hard for fundraising. It's part of what campaigns call the "summer slump," the summer months when fundraising numbers take a nosedive as people spend more time outside with their friends and family and less time online.
As a result, our fundraising has fallen a bit behind, and we're at risk of not reaching our July fundraising goal. If we come up short this month, we might have to start making budget cuts. With just over 100 days until Election Day, we can't afford to let that happen.
Will you help us get our fundraising back on track ahead of our end-of-month fundraising deadline? Chip in $5 or more to Matt Cartwright's campaign right away.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Election experts are calling our race for Pennsylvania's 8th District a "toss up," and Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight even called it the most competitive House district in the country. That's why national Republicans have already announced they're pouring $2.7 million in this district to defeat Matt and retake the House majority.
We need to keep our fundraising on track from now until Election Day to fight back against these attacks flooding our district. But we can't do it without the support of this grassroots team.
Chip in before our end-of-month fundraising deadline to help us avoid the dreaded summer slump and ensure we have the resources to re-elect Matt in November.
Thank you,
Blakely
Team Cartwright
