Hey there —
I am sure you didn't wake up this morning, spring out of bed and scream "Today is the day I am going to donate to help Elissa Slotkin hold Michigan's Senate seat for Democrats!"
But I am emailing in the hope that you will consider contributing today anyway. Here’s why:
Michigan is going to be one of the closest, most competitive and expensive Senate races in the country next year. Recent polling shows a dead-heat in both the Senate and the Presidential races, which means we have two competitive elections to win next year. And now we have a Republican opponent who, as of early September, has a 20 year voting record of supporting things like extreme bans on abortion even in the cases of rape, incest, and a common miscarriage.
This news makes it especially important that we’re doing the work to build an early foundation now. Donations a year from now – when we’re in the home stretch – are important. But donations now are even more important, because they allow us to map out a strategic plan and make decisions about when and how we reach voters.
I also hope you will contribute because, at the end of this month, we’ll once again report our fundraising numbers for the quarter and everyone will be watching to see how we compare to our new Republican opponent. And because I have never taken corporate PAC money, it’s donations from emails like this that will showcase our competitive edge in this race.
So while contributing to my campaign might not have been at the top of your to-do list this morning, I would love it if you would consider donating $3 or whatever you can to my campaign today. The amount is important, but not as important as the donation itself. It will all add up fast when we're all chipping in.
If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly:
Thank you,
Elissa
