Friends, family, and longtime supporters — I’m reaching out because tonight at midnight my campaign will reach another important fundraising deadline, and my team tells me that we still have several thousand dollars to go to meet our goal.

Will you please consider pitching in any amount towards that $48,000 goal before midnight?

These deadlines come around more often than any of us would like, and I know I ask a lot of you. But your donation truly can make the difference between a campaign that’s ready to win, and one that gets caught flat-footed by well-funded Republicans determined to turn Virginia red.

My team sets these goals with a keen eye toward our campaign budget, mapping out exactly how far we need to be at this point in the cycle in order to persuade and turn out key voters next November. So missing a goal isn’t just disappointing — it’s putting everything from my own re-election to the Democratic Senate majority at risk.

I’d really appreciate anything you’re able to give — you can donate online via this secure link: secure.actblue/aug31x17

Thanks so much.
