Hey, it's Anna, Zach's campaign manager.
I wanted to give you a quick behind-the-scenes update before tonight's FEC deadline, and fill you in on 2 reasons why this really matters.
First, after this deadline, our fundraising numbers will become public.
That might not seem like a big deal, but grassroots campaigns like ours are under extra scrutiny, especially when we’re going up against so much DC super PAC money.
Chuck Schumer, D.C. insiders, and outside groups will all be looking at the same thing: whether Zach Wahls can compete with the millions of dollars pouring into Iowa from Super PACs and corporate donors and win this race.
Second, Zach and I have some tough decisions to make in the next few days about how much airtime we can buy for our TV ad and the organizing team we can build. One ad on MSNBC in Davenport costs $54, and one spot on KCCI in Des Moines costs about $95.
We’re determined to get our message out to voters across the state, and we need to move quickly because early voting starts today. This fundraising deadline will determine just how much we can do.
Every dollar we raise before midnight matters. We're betting that our people-powered campaign is more powerful than the special interests.
We're close to where we need to be, but we still have ground to cover today. Can you chip in $3 before midnight and help us reach our $100,000 goal? |
Thank you,
Anna
Campaign Manager |
