Today marks exactly one year since we launched this campaign to defeat Ted Cruz, and I couldn't be more thrilled with how far we've come. How it started: Immediately after we launched this campaign, election experts from FiveThirtyEight to Roll Call UPGRADED our chances of beating Ted Cruz and officially ranked Texas a "battleground." How it's going: After early polls showed us 5 points down, hundreds of thousands of grassroots supporters like you chipped in to help me travel all over Texas to meet voters and spread our message. Thanks to you, we pulled EVEN with Ted Cruz in the polls. What's next? Ted Cruz is terrified of our grassroots movement because we're closer than ever to defeating him. But this race is a long way from over, and he's calling all his extremist mega donors and special interest allies to try and squash our momentum. We can't let up for even a second. That's why, to celebrate the one year anniversary of our campaign, my team and I set an ambitious goal to raise $300,000 by midnight. [Can I count on your split donation between]( campaign and Kirsten Gillibrand’s to help us get there, friend? Every dollar helps power our grassroots movement and gets us closer to beating Ted Cruz on Election Day.]( If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation between Colin Allred and Kirsten Gillibrand will go through immediately: [DONATE $5]( [DONATE $25]( [DONATE $50]( [ANOTHER AMOUNT]( I never could've made it this far without you.

Text NY to 60708]( A note from Kirsten: Friend, I can’t thank you enough for standing by my side in the critical fights ahead of us. As Democrats face our toughest Senate map in decades, I need your help more than ever. While Republicans only have to defend 10 seats in 2024, Democrats have to defend 23 — and if the GOP flips just two of them, it will deliver Senate control back to Mitch McConnell. Now, experts at FiveThirtyEight are saying that the GOP has a clear path to the majority. As right-wing special interests gear up to pour millions into flipping the Senate, we need to fight back right now. But I refuse to take a single cent from corporate PACs, which means I’m relying on your grassroots support.
