Friend, with just a few hours to go before our midnight deadline, we're so close to hitting our fundraising goal – but at this moment, we're still falling short.

NBC News is calling Georgia the "most important swing state" of this year's elections, meaning our race could decide Senate control. That's why Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, and the entire GOP establishment are coming after me as their TOP target for defeat.

Trump held major rallies right here in Georgia with my opponent, Herschel Walker – and McConnell is mobilizing national Republicans to flood this race with MILLIONS to defeat me. Now, polls show me 1 point down.

I won my last race by a razor-thin margin – and with our entire Democratic agenda on the line – I mean it when I say we can't afford a single misstep. The stakes have never been higher, friend, so if you've been waiting for the right time to make your very first gift, this is it:

Will you split $5 or more between my campaign and Kirsten Gillibrand’s – before our midnight deadline – to help us hit this goal, win in Georgia, and keep the Senate blue?

Thank you in advance, friend.

– Rev. Raphael Warnock
