Like Joe said last night, for our whole campaign so far the average donation has only been around $43 -- and our average donation made online in emails like this is even lower -- just $26. If you could match that $26 today, it would mean a lot to our campaign.

This statistic may seem insignificant to some, but it’s vitally important. It demonstrates that our campaign is powered by a mass movement of Americans who are stepping up to defeat Donald Trump and restore the soul of our nation.

And the truth is that we need thousands of these individual contributions every single day to keep this campaign running at full speed. So while we understand that you can’t give every time we ask, right now is a critically important time to step up.

Here’s why: our end-of-year deadline is rapidly approaching, and this is the FINAL public filing deadline before voting begins. We have to make a powerful showing, and we have to keep our organizing and advertising programs running at strong levels, or we risk looking weak just as voting begins.

So, whether it’s our online average or $5 (an average amount we personalized for you!), please chip in now to keep our momentum going before this make-or-break deadline strikes »

We know that you could take that $26, or however much you choose to donate, and spend that money on something else. Especially during the holiday season.

But every small-dollar contribution in the door is a powerful statement that you’re committed to defeating Donald Trump. It’s a statement that no matter what attack Trump throws at us next, you’re going to help us respond and overcome his antics.

Only people like you can keep this train moving. So please, pitch in $5 before this next big deadline -- we need your help now more than ever before:
