Friend, I just got some alarming news, and I had to share it with you right away:

Donald Trump's handpicked candidate, Bernie Moreno (R), is holding a huge fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago tonight, and we need your urgent support to fight back.

Here's why: Experts at CNN are calling me one of the most vulnerable senators up for reelection. Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, and their megadonor friends are spending MILLIONS to defeat me – and now, I'm worried their spending spree is working. The latest polls show this race is neck and neck.

If we let Moreno and Trump outraise and outspend us, we could lose this race and our Senate majority. That's why my team and I set a rapid-response goal to raise $100,000 by midnight so we can fight back against the GOP's spending and win.

So please, friend, I'm counting on you: Will you split $5 or more between me and Gary Peters to help reach this goal so we can fight back against whatever Trump's allies throw our way and protect Ohio's critical Senate seat?

Thanks for helping me keep Ohio's seat and the Senate blue.
