My opponent has been gaining on me in the polls. Far-right actors are attacking me online. National GOP groups are pouring money into NC to defeat me and our people-first campaign.

This is all weighing on my mind.

I know we have a tough race ahead of us — the most competitive of my career. The coming months won’t be easy.

But here’s what keeps me going: We’ve earned financial support from tens of thousands of folks across the country. More than 90% of donors are giving $100 or less. Even more are sharing news of our campaign online.

Together, we’re building the momentum we need to win the most competitive U.S. Senate race in the nation. I’m deeply grateful to everyone who has joined us so far.

I’m asking for you to join our fight by splitting a contribution between our campaign and Defend Democracy Now today. Would just $5 fit in your budget right away?

I appreciate your strong support.
