Campaign Update - Less Than 48 Hours


Dear Friends,



This is it. Less than 48 hours from now, Atlantans will go to the polls to pick a new Mayor. Today, we still need your help, your contribution today will help us Get Out The Vote and win the runoff election Tomorrow, December 1st.



Thanks to you, we finished the General election with a 10 point lead and beat Kasim Reed by nearly 8,000 votes.



But we need everyone to vote one more time - Tomorrow, December 1st.



We're fighting a battle on two fronts. Kasim Reed is attacking from one side; spreading intentional distortions and flat out falsehoods in an attempt to trick voters about my record. Meanwhile, the political establishment is attacking from the other - because Kasim Reed knows the only way he can win is with the support of the same regime that has made Atlanta less safe and less prosperous.



Your donation, before midnight Monday, will be the final nail in the coffin of pay to play politics in Atlanta.



Please give what you can now: click here to contribute.



Here's what we already know about the General election fundraising results: Kasim Reed raised more money from well heeled, well connected, big business contractors than every other candidate combined. While he's been flying to big city fundraisers across the Country (and what exactly did Kasim Reed promise to these out of state developers and contractors? We know it wasn't good government for Atlanta), I've been in your neighborhood. I've been to your Churches and Synagogues. I've been in your homes. Not just this year, but for the last twenty.



We've built this campaign from the grassroots up by relying on the more than 5,000 individual donors who have supported my campaign for Mayor by giving only what they are able.



Change does not come from the top down - it comes from the bottom up.



When we started this campaign over a year ago, the press, the pundits, the political insiders and the big business cronies didn't think a campaign that focused on the communities; delivering services, getting crime under control and fixing the city's finances had a chance.



We have proven them wrong so far, and on December 1st we have a chance to prove them wrong once and for all.



Please give what you can one more time and help us make Atlanta shine again: click here to contribute.



Thank you,



Mary
