Haruna.

Haruna --

Right now, Democrats have a major advantage, and it's because of you.

The overwhelming majority of the money we've raised for the fall election has come from small donors giving what they can. In the course of this campaign, we've received more than 3 million contributions -- and that adds up.

The Republicans don't have a base of support like ours, and it shows. They've tried to raise money from the PACs and the lobbyists, and month after month, they've come up short.

Right now, when they should be ramping up their get out the vote efforts, there are media reports that they're scaling back. Their strategy is dependent on massive spending on attack ads by outside groups. That's not nothing, but the field organizing just isn't there.

The ground is ours.

We've planned an unprecedented effort to take advantage of that fact. We've got organizers in every state, volunteers in community after community -- all of them working to make the one-on-one connections with voters that make all the difference.

Can you chip in $3 or more to help us capitalize on this advantage and power our get out the vote campaign?

We've been out-working the Republicans for months. And it's becoming clear how that is starting to pay off.

It begins with fundraising. Because of you and the contributions you've made, we've been able to hire talented organizers and give them the resources they need to go to work -- campaign offices, clipboards, customized maps for volunteers going door-to-door.

They've been on the ground across the country for months -- recruiting volunteers, training leaders, studying communities.Those volunteers -- people like you -- have organized canvasses in their neighborhoods, phone banks in their living rooms, and parties to watch the President speak.

We've watched this organization grow for months, and the results we've been able to deliver have increased exponentially. In the past month, we've seen our voter contact program grow by 150 percent per week, and it will continue growing each week until the election.

Meanwhile, the Republicans are drawing back. They've scrapped plans to send staffers out into the states to talk to voters, planning to mail out fliers instead.

Today, the ground is ours -- let's take it.

There are just 19 days left, and we need your help to seize the moment. Even with all we've built, we still have a ways to go.
