We are writing to ask if you can make a $2.70 contribution to stand with Bernie before tonight's debate. When it ends, I’ll get asked about the number of donors and donations we’ve received, and we’re hoping to report a HUGE number. Link inside. - Faiz

Help me answer this question from the press in a HUGE way

Friends -

We've sent a few fundraising emails today, so I thought it important to explain why these messages are so important to our campaign, especially today.

Believe it or not, these emails are how we raise most of the money it takes to run and win this campaign.

But on debate nights, we often get asked about how many people have donated, how many donations we've received, and how many people gave for the first time.

Because those numbers are often seen, rightfully so, as a measure of grassroots enthusiasm — which is what we need to beat Trump.

And at each debate, the response to Bernie has been extraordinary. And when I'm asked again tonight, it's important we are able to say the same thing. So before Bernie takes the stage, I have to ask:

Can you make your first $2.70 contribution to our campaign before Bernie takes the stage at tonight's debate? We're likely to share some of these results later tonight, and are hoping for a HUGE number.

Tonight you're going to hear Bernie Sanders talk about how he is the candidate on stage with the GUTS to stand up to the insurance companies, the drug companies, and the fossil fuel companies whose greed and recklessness is killing people and destroying our planet.

And when we are in the White House, that's just what we'll do. Help him get there.

All my best,

Faiz Shakir
Campaign Manager
