Hi there,

The New York Times recently reported:

If you need a quick reminder, recent polls out of Iowa and New Hampshire show Bernie Sanders in the lead in the Democratic primary race -- but at the same time, they show Pete better positioned than any other Democrat to win against Trump in the general election.

We risk nominating a candidate who cannot beat Donald Trump in November -- and Trump’s team knows this. They’re working to make sure it happens.

We need to nominate a candidate who can turn the page. We need a candidate who can beat Donald Trump. We need Pete.

But with our FEC deadline approaching this Friday, and the Iowa Caucuses just a few days later, we really need a huge fundraising surge right now to keep up with Bernie Sanders.

Will you chip in right now? Thank you so much.

This will be an uphill battle. We won’t be able to beat Donald Trump unless we have a nominee that can galvanize, not polarize, the American people behind bold solutions.

Last night, Pete earned a standing ovation at his Fox News Town Hall from folks across the political spectrum after he shared his case for protecting a woman’s right to choose, the need for immediate and bold action on climate change, and the removal of the president from office. Let me reiterate -- this was Pete’s second standing ovation on Fox News.

Pete isn’t the Trump campaign’s ideal opponent; he’s the president’s worst nightmare. He’ll stand tall on the debate stage as a middle-class, Midwestern mayor who served his country. While Trump reminds Americans about the worst of our politics -- the noise and polarization -- Pete will offer a new vision that turns the page toward a politics of belonging, boldness, and action.

We can’t play into Trump’s hands. We need to win the nomination, but we can’t do that unless we succeed in the Iowa Caucuses. The outcome of this election will come down to every last voter, and the decisions we make until then will have a lasting impact on the history of our nation. Let’s make the right decision together.

Thanks,

Hari
