THEN: We told you how were falling behind before this FEC deadline ends tonight at midnight. NOW: We're really in an all-hands-on-deck situation. Our fundraising numbers will be public after we file our FEC report and there's so much on the line. [So {NAME}: Can Elissa count on you to make your first online contribution to her campaign before our FEC fundraising deadline ends tonight at MIDNIGHT? The amount isn't as important as the donations we receive, because it all adds up.]( [CONTRIBUTE]( Every single donation matters. It matters to the groups looking at our grassroots strength when deciding to spend for or against us. It matters to the financial goals we need to meet in order to win. We mean it when we say the donation itself is just as important as the amount you give. It will all add up when we're in this together. So please. Contribute whatever feels right to you before our midnight deadline ends.
