A whole new ballgame

Hey, it’s Jon Tester. My campaign is approaching our first major test of the general election, and I need your help. I’ll explain more in a second, but first: Will you split a donation to help us reach our must-hit end-of-quarter fundraising goal? June has marked a major turning point for our campaign. We officially have an opponent, won our first debate, and now have our first FEC deadline of the general election. We need to be building momentum, but instead our fundraising has slowed down at the worst possible time. Mitch McConnell and his super PAC allies are spending nearly $65 million to tear us down, and if our fundraising numbers look weak, they’ll take that as a sign to bury us in ads. That’s why we’ve set an ambitious goal of raising $1 million before our FEC deadline. It won’t be easy, but if we want to win this race, we have to aim high. We can’t afford to play it safe, and we can’t afford to come up short. I need your help to win this thing, so I’m personally asking: [Can I count on you to split a contribution between my campaign and Democracy Defense Action to send the message to Mitch McConnell and his megadonors that Montana can’t be bought?]( This race is about more than just a Senate seat to me. It’s personal. It’s about defending Montana from the wealthy outsiders like my opponent, who think their money and influence entitle them to treat this state like their personal playground and buy themselves a Senate seat to boot. Montana’s been my home my whole life, and I’ll always fight for our values. But I can’t win this race without your help, so please: [Split a donation today so I can keep fighting for Montanans in the Senate.]( Thanks, Jon Tester Paid for by Democracy Defense Action.
