Quick follow up

John -- Since I wrote yesterday, we have come VERY close to our goal, but I'm reaching out again to let you know that we are $1,200 short of funding our Get Out The Vote digital ads campaign. I am about to hop on the phones with the field team to make some calls to voters, so if you could pit…

We're $14,200 short of what we need to run an aggressive GOTV ads program over the next three days. John, can I count on you to give $5, $10, $25, or any amount you can before the night is over?

Hi, John --   I hope you will excuse the short note.   With three days left, I am feeling pinched for time and I'm hoping I can count on you right now.   We are so close to reaching tonight's goal -- and right now, $14,200 stands in the way of us running a powerful Get Out The Vote ad campaig…

Ads budget update

Hi John,   As you know, our campaign budget is tight, and we're in danger of being outspent by national Republican groups propping up my far-right opponent Lee Zeldin. Before Tuesday, we need to make sure hundreds of thousands of Suffolk County voters make their plan to vote -- so my team is …

Digital ads plan

Hi John,   Every day Donald Trump makes it clear. We cannot afford another four years with a Trump White House or his lackeys like Lee Zeldin peddling their lies and destructive policies in the House.   When we win this race, I will fight for science, for truth, for our children, and for the …

We need someone who gets the math

Donald Trump says he'll win Long Island

Following up to counter Republican Super PAC spending in NY-01

Hi John,   This morning, I wrote to you about the gap in our plan to invest $115,000 more on TV this week. Hundreds of people stepped up, putting us within $19,500 of our goal. I haven't had a chance to review the list of donors just yet, but if you have already given, consider this as an upd…

Our competitive ads budget

Hi, John -- Just finished our 9 AM daily team meeting. Shane told me that we're $38,200 short of our goal, and as I've mentioned, our finances are tight. Every dollar we raise is going directly to voter contact investments on TV and digital.   Our data show that if we continue to invest heavi…
