Hi there, I’m reaching out today to ask you to chip in ahead of our end-of-year fundraising deadline. But first, I want to take a moment to explain why your support is helpful right now, and where that contribution is going to go in 2023.

2022 was certainly a whirlwind year — let me tell you, winning two close races within six months is not easy. But with your continued support, we were able to overcome all of the challenges thrown our way and win these toss-up races.

Now that I won’t be on the ballot for over a year, my campaign’s focus is shifting away from short-term victories to long-term strategizing.

Although we had big wins in 2022, New York Democrats underperformed in several competitive races. There’s a lot we can do between now and the 2024 elections to make sure that doesn’t happen again.

I’m going to keep up a strong messaging operation, reaching people across upstate New York through ads, phone conversations, canvassing, events, and more. My campaign isn’t a short-term operation, because if we only show up for voters during election seasons, we’re letting them down.

Your support now will set us up for success for years to come. Building a sustainable, high-performing campaign in the Hudson Valley and beyond takes a lot of resources, and early investment is important. That’s why I’m asking:

Could you please chip in a few dollars to my campaign before our end-of-year deadline tonight?

Thank you for your support. I hope you have a happy New Year!

Yours in service,

Pat
