Friend, I know you probably didn’t wake up this morning thinking you’d make a donation to help me defend Arizona’s battleground Senate seat, but I'm humbly asking for your help.

In just a single week, the NRSC spent $1 million on attack ads against me – and they've committed to piling on another $13 million. Donald Trump has held three rallies in Arizona to fire up his base around his handpicked candidate. And polling shows me 2 points behind.

We've got to fight back against these relentless attacks and pull ahead before it's too late. But we've already missed a few fundraising goals in a row – so every single one from here on out is critical.

That's why I'm asking you directly, friend. With time running out before our critical midnight deadline, I’m still short of the $50,000 we need to hold Arizona's Senate seat. So, please:

Will you rush a donation of $5 or more right now before our midnight deadline – split between me and Jacky Rosen – to help me hit my goal, protect Arizona’s Senate seat, and hold the Senate?

Thanks so much.

Mark Kelly
