Eight hundred and thirty-one.

Jason,    Below you can see how much work there is to do across the country, and just how impactful we think it will be on the next election. It all comes down to math.   Our FEC deadline is in 10 days, so I asked the team to run the numbers and tell me how many donations it will take to reach our budget target in time. The answer? 831.    Whether you chip in $5 or whether you give our average donation of $41, it all adds up — thank you for whatever you can donate today to help get closer to our goal.     Grassroots operations are only as strong as how many people show up to build them. And I can tell you that every time it matters most, this team shows it can be counted on.   Thank you for having my back and for fighting for our democracy,    Amy   ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Amy McGrath  Date: Tue, Dec 19, 2023 at 10:34 AM. Subject: Let's talk about battleground states   Jason,    When I talk about the theory on the case for Operation Saving Democracy, I say it hinges on a key group of voters in a handful of battleground states that we believe will help determine the outcome of the next election.    These are folks who have mostly voted Republican over national security issues, but who are increasingly horrified by Trump and his authoritarian, anti-democratic campaign rhetoric. Without getting too far into the numbers, here's how impactful this audience can be:     It's safe to expect the next election will be won once again by small margins in a small number of states — that's why Operation Saving Democracy wants to ramp up our work as soon as possible in as many places as possible.    What we raise before our FEC fundraising deadline at the end of the year will determine where we can get started, how quickly we can get off the ground, and how many voters we can reach.    Will you make a donation today and help make sure our mission is firing on all cylinders in 2024?    With Trump outright saying that he wants to be America's first dictator, the urgency of this work couldn't be higher. We can't afford to waste a single day without moving this operation forward.    Thank you for doing your part, especially at this busy time of year.   Amy DONATE PAID FOR BY OPERATION SAVING DEMOCRACY (OPERATIONSAVINGDEMOCRACY.ORG) NOT AUTHORIZED BY ANY CANDIDATE OR CANDIDATE'S COMMITTEE.   Operation Saving Democracy PO Box 95 Lexington, KY 40588 United States   These emails are the single best way to stay up to date on how you can help Operation Saving Democracy defeat Trumpism.
