John -- I was woken this morning to my phone buzzing with some not great news…  

This election is on a knife edge. The opposition knows it, and they’re going to spend BIG to try to come out on top. With money like that they can bombard social media, billboards and newspapers with negative attacks ads, making it much harder to reach voters with our positive campaign messages.

John, if we don’t act now we’re in real danger of being drowned out. 

Can you chip in today to help us combat the $1 million that ACT has just received? Every single donation, whether it's $10 or $100 will help us to reach New Zealanders with our positive campaign messages.

I don’t need to tell you what's at stake here. The only way National can govern is in coalition with ACT. If that happens, ACT would force painful cuts to critical services so they can fund massive tax cuts for their wealthy donors. It’s the last thing this country needs. 

ACT and National might have a few mega donors, but we have thousands of passionate and determined Kiwis like you, John. And together we are powerful. 

So please chip in what you can today - there’s only one way we win in October - and that’s together.

Thanks, 

Rob Salmond 

P.S. Every donation really does make a difference. With thousands of us contributing we can compete with the opposition's big money campaign. Even if you can only donate a small amount, please do give what you can today.
