I’m not excited to tell you this, but my team just sent over fundraising stats for the month. Our online fundraising numbers have taken a serious downturn the last few days. Take a look:

1. Our total raised for October was less than September.
2. We’ve received 167 fewer contributions.
3. Our average donation has fallen by 5%.

Look, if we can’t catch up, I’m worried we’ll not have the resources to carry out our outreach plan through to Election Day. But we’ve seen tough times before. And it’s all about what we do next.

Can I count on you to chip in $5, $10, or any amount to get us back on our feet and flip TX-23?

It means so much that you’re with me in this fight — especially in tough moments like this one.
