John,

We have just one week left and I have good news.

Our Text Out The Vote campaign has sent more than 6 MILLION texts to voters.

You read that right: Six million text segments reaching infrequent voters and the newly-registered in our 13 targeted states that we need to defeat Trump, flip the Senate, and win local elections up and down the ballot.

Here’s the bad news: We only budgeted to send 5 million.

We’re busting the budget here thanks to the incredible work of our amazing volunteers and we need you to step up and help fund it RIGHT NOW. Please contribute whatever you can and maximize our impact to Get Out The Vote:

On Nov. 4, we’ll be out of time. Let’s make sure we wake up that morning having mobilized as many voters as we can across the country to a progressive victory.

We know our campaign is working.

One reason it’s working so well is that text messages have an 85% open rate. No call program has that kind of contact rate. Another reason is that one volunteer can reach thousands of voters in a single shift. No door to door program has that kind of scale.

And while sending voters political mailers can be targeted to the same high-potential, but infrequently-voting, demographics we’re reaching, a piece of paper in the mail can’t have a conversation with voters to help them actually get the information they need to vote.

Our Text Out The Vote campaign can.

Our volunteers are reaching millions of voters in 13 critical states -- including Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Florida, and Pennsylvania -- answering questions, providing critical state specific voting information, and driving huge turnout for Democrats up and down the ballot statewide.

All we need now is your help to fund the final 7 days. Please contribute as much as you can immediately:

Person-to-person conversations are the single best way to turn out voters.

It’s crucial work that will have a direct impact on the outcome of this election.

But this is not work that can be done alone. It takes a big, grassroots team of folks working together to contact millions of voters. So, if you can’t contribute today, you can still join our team of incredible volunteers by signing up for a shift (or several shifts) between now and the last day to vote >>

One week to go.

Millions of Americans who still need to vote.

Let’s make sure we do every single thing we can to Get Out the Vote between now and November 3rd.

Thank you for doing your part to win.
