Urgent update for folks in Carrollton on the state of this race →

I know you've seen the polls, Pat, and I want to bring you an important update on the state of this race.

I am about to ask you to contribute your first $7 to the DNC to help expand Joe Biden and Democrats' battleground map. Before I do that, I need to share three important facts that explain why a donation right now could help tip the scales of this race in our favor in some critically important states. Donald Trump's rallies are reckless and unhinged. But you already knew that one. Over the past week, he's been frantically holding rally after rally to shore up last-minute support from his base, and he's been playing defense in some places that might surprise you. Trump and his team have held events in states like Georgia, Iowa, and North Carolina -- revealing they think he's slipping even in states he won in 2016. Joe Biden and Democrats have a narrow lead in battleground states all across the nation, and we can win them if we see the surge of momentum we need to pull ahead before it's too late. Creating as many possible paths to 270 electoral votes for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris is how we're going to win the White House, take back the Senate, and hold the House -- and by contributing right now, you'll support the battleground organizing and ads that could tip the states where Trump is losing ground in Democrats' favor. Can I count on you to donate $7 to the DNC today so we can compete everywhere? Your investment helps ensure our party has the critical resources needed to expand our battleground map and mobilize voters in key states -- and it's going to take all of us to keep up this momentum and win decisively on Election Day. DONATE: $7 DONATE: $10 DONATE: $25 DONATE: $50 DONATE: $100 Donate another amount Pat, we're competitive in more states than anyone thought we would be just a couple of months ago, and that's thanks to supporters like you. Your grassroots investments have allowed our party to scale critical infrastructure and mobilize voters in key battleground states. With only 17 days remaining in the most consequential election of our lifetimes, I want us to be able to say that we did everything in our power to meet the magnitude of this moment and deliver a decisive victory to Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and down-ballot Democrats running across the country. There's still a little more time left to make a significant impact at this critical point in the race, so I have to ask one more time: If you're able, will you make a $7 contribution to the DNC while there's time to help us turn out voters in key battleground states? There's still so much work to do, and anything you can give right now could make the difference for Joe, Kamala, and down-ballot Democratic candidates. In unity, Tom Tom Perez Chair Democratic National Committee P.S. Trump and the GOP are holding rallies and doing everything they can to narrow Democrats' lead in key battleground states like Florida, Pennsylvania, Iowa, and North Carolina. We need your support to mobilize as many voters as we can in the remaining 17 days before Election Day. Can I count on you to please make a donation of $7 to the DNC right now? Anything you can give today could make a serious impact on this race and help deliver a decisive victory to Joe, Kamala, and down-ballot Democratic candidates.
