A humble request, Pat​:

I know our country's best days are still ahead of us, but we have to fight for them.

With only 181 days until Election Day, we have our work cut out for us. You can trust me when I say this, Pat: This election won't be over until the last vote is cast. Republicans are already fighting like hell to defend their majorities and win another four years of chaos for Donald Trump. If we're going to hold our Democratic House majority, take back the Senate, and win the White House, we need to fight just as hard as Republicans are right now. It is up to us, Pat. Right now, as the general election is taking off, is the moment we must come together and put our support behind not only my campaign for president, but thousands of other Democratic campaigns nationwide. The only way Democrats can restore the soul of our nation and deliver on our country's founding principles is to win seats at every level of office on November 3. That's why I have to ask: Will you split your first $10 donation to my campaign and the DNC's Democratic Unity Fund at this critical moment? DONATE: $10 DONATE: $25 DONATE: $50 DONATE: $100 DONATE: $250 Donate another amount As crazy as it may sound, I still believe our country's best days are still ahead of us, but only if we don't take winning this election for granted -- we have to fight for that progress now. We've gotta give Democrats across the country the data and tech resources to contact voters where they are, hire organizers who are going to reach out to key voters in their communities, protect every American's right to vote, and so much more. All of this is within reach, but it requires our commitment to investing in these programs early and often. Make a $10 donation to my campaign and the Democratic Unity Fund today to help Democrats win the White House and seats in all 50 states on November 3. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for standing with me and thousands of Democrats nationwide ahead of the most important election of our lifetime. All my best, Joe P.S. The general election is here -- and there couldn't be a more important time to make your first donation to help Democrats win from local office to the Oval Office.
