Friend -- My name is Martin Sheen, though you may remember me as President Bartlet from The West Wing.
I'm reaching out to you today because the midterm elections are just weeks away. The first early ballots are already being cast. And control of the Senate and the future of American democracy are on the line. Yes, it really is that serious.
Polls show Democrats like Raphael Warnock, Catherine Cortez Masto, and Mark Kelly locked in frighteningly close races against far-right MAGA Republicans. And Mitch McConnell only needs to flip ONE seat to take control.
The folks at the DSCC in charge of defending our Democratic Senate have an important fundraising deadline tonight. This is one of the last ones before Election Day, which means we don't have many chances left to truly make a difference. So, I'm humbly asking: Will you pitch in $5 or whatever you can afford to support Democrats and stop Mitch McConnell? A group of donors has agreed to TRIPLE your gift:
For seven years on The West Wing, during times of cynicism and national pain, we tried to show America what our government could be if we all came together for a common purpose. But let me tell you: This year's Republican Senate candidates have no interest in any such vision.
They have embraced Donald Trump's dangerous election lies and tried to grind President Biden's agenda to a halt. And the biggest conservative donors in politics are spending millions to help them win.
That's why it's so important for the DSCC to reach tonight's fundraising goal -- so they can defeat the farthest of far-right Republicans and elect inspiring Democrats like Mandela Barnes, Val Demings, and John Fetterman. Unfortunately, they are on track to fall short.
But I just learned a group of generous donors has agreed to TRIPLE gifts made in response to this email. All you have to do is pitch in by midnight tonight.
Please, will you contribute $5 (becomes $15) today to save our Democratic Senate majority, beat the GOP, and stop Mitch McConnell from regaining power?
If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will be processed immediately. The first $10,000 received from this email will be TRIPLED:
My character in The West Wing famously said, "Decisions are made by those who show up." I truly believe that, and if you do too, then let's show up together and defend the Senate.
Thank you so much for all you do,
Martin Sheen
