Not only is it the only way we will keep pace – it's ultimately the only way we'll win. That is why we're asking:

Friends -

We're running into a bit of a dilemma, and we hope that you can help.

  1. Our campaign has FAR more donations than anyone else. It's not even close, and that says a ton about the type of movement we're building together.
  2. Despite having more donations, right now we risk falling behind our opponents who hold private fundraisers to collect $2,800 checks from the billionaire class. Including one event at a wine cave...

Two weeks from today is the next FEC fundraising deadline – the last one before voting begins – and shortly after we will publicly report our numbers. So we need to ask you to do something big to help close the gap before then.

Most people contributing for the first time to our campaign make a donation of $2.70.

If you can, we're asking you to contribute $10 today. The truth is that it takes an obscene amount of money to run for president, and Bernie needs us right now if we're going to win.

Can Bernie count on you to make a $10 contribution to our campaign? You'll help catch up on our December goals before this next FEC deadline while putting us in a position to win this race.

A lot of our opponents travel the country holding fundraising events with the wealthy, and they're counting on big money to try to defeat us.

We're funding this campaign a different way, from lots and lots of people making small donations. That's important.

Not only is it the only way we will keep pace – it's ultimately the only way we'll win. That is why we're asking:

Contribute $10 today to stand with Bernie. Together we are going to win this primary and transform our country.

Thank you for being a part of this campaign.

In solidarity,

Faiz Shakir
Campaign Manager
