Friend, this will only take a minute – but it's crucial that I have your attention the entire time.

With Jan. 1 marking the official start of the 2026 election cycle, I set a lofty $100,000 goal for our final end-of-quarter deadline of 2025 so we can hit the ground running with the funds to solidify our lead in the governor's race.

But unless we raise another $21,771 before the ball drops tomorrow at midnight, my opponents and MAGA-allied megadonors alike will take it as a sign that we didn't have the grassroots strength to reach it – and that we might not have enough support to really compete, come election night.

So I'm personally asking: Will you please rush your first gift of $5, $25, or anything to my campaign ASAP to ensure we shore up the gap by tomorrow's can't-miss deadline?

I hope I can count on you. 

Thank you,

Michael
