John,
Thanks to your contributions, we met our fundraising goal on Dec. 31. That deadline was one of the most important of our entire campaign, as it marked not just the end of the year but also the end of the fourth quarter. The funds we raised during Q4 will be analyzed by everyone from media pundits to endorsing organizations to people trying to decide if they’ll support our campaign. Thanks to hundreds of you who stepped up in the final days of 2019, we can report some strong numbers. So, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your last-minute support!
We hope we can count on your continued support in the months to come. We have a lot of voter outreach to do to increase awareness of our campaign and our progressive message of change. That means promotional materials, advertising, and continuing to pay a living wage to our paid canvassers, who make sure we are reaching hundreds of voters every week. Unlike the legacy incumbent, we don’t take corporate PAC or special interest money; we rely solely on the support of individuals like you. If you really want to ensure our campaign has the runway to go the distance, please consider setting up a monthly recurring contribution. Those help us budget and plan, and allow us to spend more time on critical voter outreach than on fundraising.
2020 is here, folks. We need to meet its challenges head on, finish what we started in 2018, and deliver the change the people of MO-01 desperately need.
Are you with us?
With all my thanks,
Cori
