Hi John,

It’s Gisel — the campaign manager for Team Chuy. Now that we’re officially six weeks out, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your support and get you up to speed on the state of the race:

• According to recent polls, we’re heading into the election with positive favorability and universal name recognition citywide. It’s clear Chicagoans see that Chuy is the candidate who will bring meaningful progress on the critical issues facing our city — from crime and unemployment to affordable housing and fully funding our public schools.
   
• But right now, Chuy is locked in a competitive race in a crowded field. And while one of our opponents courts GOP donors and another abuses their office to coerce participation in their campaign — Chuy is the only candidate in this race hyper-focused on bringing Chicagoans together to build a brighter future for all.
   
• The stakes couldn’t be any higher, especially with our opponents trying to slow down our campaign’s momentum by spending millions of dollars to attack us and launching TV ads smearing Chuy’s record.
   
• So we must fight back and step up our ads, organizing, and voter outreach efforts to drown out our opponents’ attacks. But all that costs money.

John, we’re in the most crucial stretch of this campaign — so it's essential we sustain our grassroots momentum.

If you can, will you please donate any amount right now to help us counter the other side’s spending and give Chuy a huge boost in the final stretch of this race?

Thank you for doing what you can to make Chicago the city we all dream of.
