Unlike a lot of other politicians, I didn't run for fame or power, and I certainly don't rely on special interest groups or wealthy mega-donors who call the shots in Washington.

Instead, I'm running a campaign powered by folks like you pitching in whatever you can afford to keep us going strong because I never want there to be a question about who I answer to. It's always you.

The truth is, though, it looks like we may fall short of our online fundraising goal for the year and the deadline is just a few days away. I'll be frank, it's been a tough month for fundraising, but I'm counting on you to help us catch up before we ring in the new year.

Will you pitch in today to help our campaign reach this end-of-year goal before it's too late? Anything you can give will make a meaningful difference in our work to keep Minnesota blue.

Every contribution we receive from emails just like this one means the world to me. I hope you know how grateful I am for your support.

Thank you.
