Friend,

This is it: Our freeze deadline is at midnight. Tonight. No more fundraising for more than three months.

So this is the last time I'll ask for over three months, and I ask because it couldn't be more important. We're less than $5,000 away from our goal of $50,000 in grassroots donations: Will you donate $1 or more right now?

This race is not in the bag. It's not tied up. It's not certain. And while my campaign can't raise a single dollar until spring, my Republican opponents can raise against me.

The Republican Governors Association only has to worry about eleven races in 2020. The bulk of them are Republican-held -- and there are just three Democratic incumbents they can take out. I'm one of them.

Since 2017, the RGA has raised more than $186 million, and they'd love to help ANY of my six GOP opponents beat me next fall. All while we're sitting out and losing out on more than three months of fundraising.

More than three in five Washingtonians disapprove of Donald Trump's job performance, but you can bet the Washington GOP and my Republican opponents will be front and center at every rally in the state from here until Election Day -- and we're losing out on more than three months of fundraising. This is what we're up against.

This deadline is very real, and that's why I'm asking for your help: Donate $1 or more before tonight's midnight deadline, and let's raise $50,000 to keep my campaign warm through the freeze.

Very truly yours,

Jay
