[Photo of Katie Hobbs]( Hi, team – it's Katie Hobbs, the Democratic nominee for governor of Arizona. [I'm in a neck-and-neck race here, and I'm asking for your help today.]( But first, let me take a moment to explain where things stand: I won't sugarcoat things – it's been a tough couple of years. As Arizona's Secretary of State, I faced death threats from MAGA extremists when I upheld our constitution and defended the results of our 2020 elections. Armed protesters even showed up at my home. Now, I'm running for governor against one of the far-right radicals who were egging these extremists on and spreading these dangerous conspiracy theories. The Cook Political Report has rated my race a toss-up, and the latest poll has me down by just 1 point. With the election just weeks away, we need all hands on deck to win this race. [That's why I have to ask: Please, will you split $3 between my campaign and the Democratic Governors Association? All donations to the DGA before 11:59 p.m. tonight will be DOUBLE-MATCHED up to the DGA's $50,000 goal to help us win in critical states like Arizona.]( [DOUBLE MY GIFT]( Arizonans can count on me to fight for them because I've spent my whole life doing just that. I fought to expand Medicaid. I led the charge to face the opioid epidemic head on. And when I became Secretary of State, I worked hard to make sure our elections would remain secure, keep us accountable to the voters that we served, and fiercely defend our democracy. And when the going got tough – when I received the first of many death threats, when my home address was leaked online, and when those armed protesters showed up in the dark of night – I didn't back down. I stood my ground and got the job done. We counted every single vote and we held the line against attacks on the constitution that I swore to uphold. Meanwhile, my radical opponent, Kari Lake, was using her limelight to spread The Big Lie and attack me for defending our democracy. People like her played a direct role in encouraging the extremists who showed up at my home and at the Capitol on Jan. 6. It's no wonder that Trump has thrown his total support behind her. They're two sides of the same coin. And here's the thing: Kari Lake is just one of the hundreds of election deniers who will be on the ballot in 2022. Across the 36 states that have gubernatorial elections this year, more than HALF of all the GOP nominees have refused to fully accept the results of the 2020 election. I've seen firsthand how dangerous Trump and his election lies can be, and trust me on this: We cannot allow these people to take power. That's why this is so important: [Will you please split a donation between my campaign and the DGA before our 11:59 p.m. deadline? All gifts to the DGA will be DOUBLED up to their $50,000 goal.](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) If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: [Donate $3 (and have it DOUBLED!)]( [Donate $6 (and have it DOUBLED!)]( [Donate $12 (and have it DOUBLED!)]( [Or donate other amount]( Thank you for standing with me, Katie Hobbs
