| Hey Jason, it’s Kelly, Joe Biden’s Deputy Online Fundraising Director. My team and I are responsible for sending you all of the emails that you receive each month.
Which is why we were so thrilled to send you a note from President Obama this morning! Did you see it?
I hope you’ll give me a chance to explain why President Obama reached out, why we keep emailing and how important this last end-of-month goal is. Then, I hope you’ll chip in $15.
We set an ambitious goal of $100 million online in the final days of October. Every goal we set is based on real projections from our budget team -- raising this $100 million will allow us to make new ad buys and to send more resources to one of our 17 states in our expanded battleground state map.
But this is a grassroots goal. No big dollar donor is coming in to push us over the edge, only online donations like yours, to emails like this, will help us get there: President Obama knows how important these final goals are, which is why he wanted to reach out to you personally.
Because the truth is, the closer we get to election day the less people donate. It’s like that every election year, and our campaign is no exception. People think that their donation has less of an impact at the end.
That couldn’t be further from the truth, your donation has MORE of an impact right now, so we need to pick up the pace.
Jason, that’s why we keep emailing you. Our projections tell us we likely won’t hit this goal unless we bring in $2,700,000 more from New Jersey before Saturday. As one of our top New Jersey grassroots donors, can you step up and help us close that gap? | If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | | |
I know we ask a lot, but we wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t absolutely necessary.
I hope you’ll take the time to read President Obama’s note below and remind yourself what is at stake, and how much we can accomplish if we all dig deep the next 8 days.

Biden for President ---Forwarded Message---

Subject: Jason, I'm urgently asking you
To: Jason Milano Jason,
Today, I'm reaching out to ask for your help to reach Joe and Kamala's final end-of-month fundraising goal of the election.
If we do our jobs, hit this goal, and win decisively, you won't have to get any more emails asking for money starting on November 4th. But until then, we have to be certain they don't miss a single fundraising goal.
Which brings me to my ask for you today: Joe's team set their final end-of-month goal state by state, to reach their nationwide goal of $100 million to close out October. This morning I have the privilege of updating you on the progress in New Jersey. By midnight on Saturday they are aiming to have $2,767,500 more from New Jersey to end this month in the strongest position possible to win this election.
So Jason, I hope you'll pitch in $15 right now and be one of the donations they are counting on coming in from New Jersey between now and Saturday. I meant it when I committed to doing whatever it takes to help win this battle for the soul of our nation. That's why I've hit the campaign trail myself, including stops in Philadelphia and Miami: to make the case to any remaining undecided voters why our country needs Joe and Kamala.
We've waited four years for this opportunity, the opportunity to put someone our kids can look up to back in the White House. Joe knows what it's like to make some of the toughest personal decisions in the world while still leading with kindness and a respect for humanity. I know, because I saw him do it myself.
Our country urgently needs Joe Biden as our next commander-in-chief, but his team is going to need a surge of donations before the end of October to reach every last undecided voter. And, Jason, I know firsthand the impact of these final donations to a presidential campaign. With so much on the line, we absolutely cannot allow Joe and Kamala to fall short here. Not now.
That's why I'm personally asking you to donate to this all-important final end-of-month deadline, Jason -- and if we can bring in $2,767,500 more from New Jersey by October 31 at midnight, I'm hearing Joe and Kamala will be able to hit their final goal of $100 million to end October strong. Can I count on your $15 donation today? | If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | | |
Jason, this deadline could be the most important of the entire campaign. And this campaign is undoubtedly the most important of our lifetime. Our next president will decide what kind of America we leave behind for our children and grandchildren.
So I hope I can count on you to do all you can to help elect Joe. For eight years, he stood by my side in the White House. From my own firsthand experience, I can't think of a better president to face this moment.
The team needs to raise $100 million online before the month ends, so any humble amount you can give goes a long way to hitting this goal, and shows that this team has broad based support across the country:
