huge setback

Folks, it isn’t easy to say this. We’re facing a serious setback.

This week, we set an ambitious goal to raise $1 million to start the general election. We saw an initial surge of support, but now our numbers have dropped significantly.

I’m not sounding the alarm just yet, but my finance team told me that if we can’t raise $25,955 before our next meeting in 90 minutes, we’re going to have to make some tough calls on what to cut from our budget plan based on our latest slowdown.

These aren’t just arbitrary goals. We’ve done the math to calculate how much we need to raise to launch our next TV ads, expand our direct voter contact program, and start off the general election in the position we need to win.

We can’t take a win in Ohio for granted, so please, will you chip in $50, $25, or even $5 to get us back on track?

Thanks for your generosity,

When you love your country, you fight for the people who make it work.

Personal message from Sherrod: I didn’t plan on running for office again.

But when I saw how these guys in Washington are only looking out for their billionaire friends and special interests, I knew I had to get back in the fight.

This grassroots movement is about fighting back against a rigged system that benefits the wealthy and well-connected, while working people pay the price.

And we’ve got momentum: Experts increased our odds of winning and officially named Ohio as a key Senate race to watch, and two new polls show we have a slight lead over our opponent.

But I need your help: Corporate special interests have already spent millions attacking me with misleading ads. The only way we can fight back and win in Ohio is with grassroots contributions from supporters like you.

If you're with me, please chip in any amount today. If you'd like to become one of my TOP supporters and receive exclusive updates from our campaign team, text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you for standing with me.
