this is serious

I need you to read this, friend. Our end-of-month deadline is less than 36 hours away, and as one of the most vulnerable senators in the entire country, I can't stress enough how important your grassroots support is in this critical moment. Here are just three key reasons I urgently need your help today: With Senate control on the line, experts at NBC News predict this race could be "one of the nastiest and most expensive in the country." My self-funding opponent has already spent $4.5 million of his own money to try to buy this seat, on top of the record-breaking ad reservations McConnell's super PACs have made to defeat me. Now, the latest polls show me and my opponent statistically tied. [Unlike my opponent, I can't write my campaign million-dollar checks – instead, I'm relying on grassroots supporters like you to hit my $1,000,000 goal before midnight tonight so I can keep fighting for the Dignity of Work in the Senate. Please, will you rush $5 or more now to split between my campaign and Democracy Defense Action to help me compete with massive GOP spending, win in Ohio, and keep the Senate blue?]( Thanks for your support, friend.
