Team, it’s Abigail Spanberger – the Democratic nominee for Governor of Virginia. I'll get right to it:

Our end-of-quarter fundraising deadline is quickly approaching, and I'm short of the resources needed to win the biggest election of the year. If you already know what’s at stake, will you donate $3 to be split between my campaign and the Democratic Governors Association to help us win my race and elect Democratic Governors for years to come? All gifts to the DGA will be TRIPLE-MATCHED up to their $250,000 goal – but only until tomorrow at midnight.

Team, what happens in Virginia this November affects us all. Here's why:

This is the only flippable Governor's race in the entire country.

My extreme opponent Winsome Earle-Sears wants to turn the Governor's office into a carbon copy of the White House. She’s in lockstep with Donald Trump's dangerous agenda, from backing a near-total abortion ban, dismissing job losses in our state, and threatening funding for public schools.

We like to say this is a bellwether race, and that's because whoever wins here would gain a major leg up in 2026 and beyond.

National Republicans are determined to keep the Governor’s office red – including by flooding Virginia with attack ads.

I refuse to be distracted from my mission: creating a Commonwealth that works for all Virginians by lowering costs, protecting reproductive rights, investing in public schools, and creating jobs. But I need your help to do it.

Team, as we approach tomorrow's critical deadline, your donation of $3, $6 – or even more! – split between my campaign and the DGA couldn't be more essential. It is the difference between waking up on Election Day this November and choosing meaningful change for Virginians or letting far-right extremists drag Virginia backwards. So please, don’t wait.

Together we will win.

Thank you,

Abigail
