Folks,
In just a moment, I am going to ask you to rush a critical donation to our campaign before next week’s mid-month fundraising deadline. Please give me a chance to explain why this request is so important.
I probably don’t need to tell you how important this Colorado Senate race is if Democrats want to take back the Senate. In fact, our race is one of the most likely Senate seats to flip in 2020 right now.
But it’s going to take a whole lot of grassroots donations to overcome the fundraising advantage that’s been gifted to our opponent by Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell’s rolodex of far-right billionaire megadonors.
And the truth is, our fundraising this month has gotten off to a rough start -- bringing in about 32% fewer individual donations than at this point last month.
Now, it’s not an emergency. I’m not looking to freak anybody out. I’m just telling you the truth because we need to get caught back up in the next few days. So we’re setting a goal to raise $100,000 in the next week from grassroots Democrats like you. That’s why I’m personally asking…
Can I count on you to make a donation of $10 or more to our campaign today? Your support will immediately go toward winning this race and give us a chance to finally get things done for everyday people:
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
At the end of this campaign, I want people to say that we won this race the right way. That’s why your contribution of any amount is so important to our team today.
Thanks for all you do.
