John, it's officially 2026 – election year. So my team and I have been spending a lot of time poring over potential budgets for the rest of the year.

It isn’t my favorite part of the campaign. But it’s important.

Between yard signs, TV and digital ads, bumper stickers, and volunteer materials, running a campaign is expensive. There simply is not enough money to pay for everything. That means we’ve had to make a few difficult cuts.

But if we’re going to have any chance of winning, we need to keep those cuts to a minimum.

One secret weapon we have to make that happen: Emails like this one.

You see, a huge chunk of our support comes from emails, texts, and other online donations. It’s how our campaign is able to stay competitive with the billionaires flooding my opponent’s bank account.

Please understand: You are a fundamental part of our plan to win Mississippi and flip this U.S. Senate seat.

I need you, John. There’s no other way to put it. Please, can you help my campaign close our budget gap by chipping in $7 or even $25? Anything you can give makes a major difference.

Thank you,
Scott Colom
