Hey John,

I can’t believe I’m even saying this, but we’re exactly one month away from ballots going out in California. In a mail-in ballot state like this, that means our election is really only 4 weeks away.

Given the new poll showing us tied, Josh has made another important investment decision.

We believe this race will come down to a few hundred votes, so we’ve decided to hire a brand new Voter Protection Director. Their job will be to build and execute a plan to ensure every eligible vote is counted. This is especially important in CA-9 where we have a large population of historically disenfranchised voters of color.

To afford this addition to our campaign, we need to raise $10,000 in the next 48 hours. Can you please donate now to help us reach our goal and fuel this critical part of our voter protection efforts?

With misinformation on the rise and the GOP ramping up their voter suppression tactics, hiring a Voter Protection Director will make sure voters have accurate information and resources to cast their ballot - making sure it’s easy and accessible for everyone to be a part of our democratic process.

In a competitive year like this, every single vote matters and every single dollar is going to make the difference. And with polls showing us tied, our race will be the one to determine who wins the majority in the House.
