Last week at our Grassroots Summit, I told our supporters that we still had a long way to go and that the closing days of this campaign were going to be hard.

This is, in part, what I meant. (1/?)
We all know that Joe Biden was the clear winner in Thursday’s debate. But that didn’t stop Donald Trump from seeing his best online fundraising night ever - better than any day in 2016.

And you can bet he’ll use every dollar to continue to spread lies about Joe Biden. (2/?)
I've said that in our battleground states this race is close—far closer than we are seeing in national polls. We cannot let up as we come into the final stretch. Our job is to execute our GOTV strategy while batting back Trump’s campaign of disinformation and smears. (3/?)
We MUST hit our goal to have the resources we need to turn every voter out, reaching them across all channels and funding our final voter outreach efforts on the ground, including new investments in Texas and Georgia (4/?)
There are 10 days left!! We can’t afford to slow down or let up now. That’s why I’m asking our supporters to step up one more time to make sure we finish strong. As I tell our team, “we can do hard things.”

And we can, especially when we do it together. (5/?)
So please, if you can, chip in to help defeat Donald Trump and to elect Joe Biden as our next President of the United States. (6/?)

And after you chip in, make sure you take time to make your plan to vote or, better yet, vote early. #VoteEarlyDay (7/7)

You heard it from the VP: our grassroots community of donors helped us raise $383 million in September — a record. I’m proud of what you’ve been able to build, but there’s still more work to do. Here's some other things I’m proud of under the hood: (1/?)

Our success has been driven by our grassroots supporters. $203 million came from online donors. We had 1.1 million new donors last month — bringing the total to 5.5 million donors throughout this campaign. And as a result, we have $432 million in the bank. (2/?)
Millions of Americans, like Trimicka from the video, chose to donate $5, $10 to be part of this campaign — because they believe in unity over division, truth over lies, hope over fear, and love over hate. (3/?)

Lots of talk about big numbers around our fundraising, but I want to talk about some key numbers under the hood (1/however!)
First, the majority of this raise is digital, which means grassroots supporters just like you. 95% of our donations came from grassroots donors.
Think about that: despite the uncertain economic times, grassroots donors are stepping up in an unprecedented way, giving $5, $10, whatever they can. We’re humbled and grateful.

Like so many other Democrats unifying every day around @JoeBiden’s character and leadership, I couldn’t be more excited to help elect him the next President and end the disaster of Donald Trump.
It’s an honor to work alongside all of @TeamJoe who spent the last year fighting their hardest, in Philly HQ and the states, even when they were counted out. That’s who you want to be in the fight with, always.
I’m grateful to be back on a team together with folks from across the party and so many other campaigns, friends old and new, and especially the #KHive, #TeamPete, #BetoToBiden, #TeamAmy, #TeamCory, #TeamMike and many more still every day.

The end of a campaign is always so hard and sad. And this is the hardest. I’ve had the real honor to work for public servants at a lot of levels, lucky to win a few - and, like most who do this long enough, losing more than a few too
I always say you learn as much or more from the losses as you do from the wins; and while that’s way easier to say than to live, it’s as true today as ever. More to come, but a today a few things I learned from this one:
That Beto is a truly good man, whose love and hopes for his country are real, whose reasons for being in it are good and true, and whose capacity to listen and learn from fellow Americans is boundless - and clear from the first time I met him

I’ve sent letters to each of @facebook @twitter and @google on behalf of not just our campaign - but every campaign who has been left to contend on our own against disinformation. This isn’t our job to clean up: it’s theirs.
Here’s our letter to @jack, whose platform announced they are leaving the demonstrably false information up.
Our letter to @google who did reach out to us earlier this week, but asked us only to trust them that they handle this appropriately.

This weekend, a right wing bot network spread the completely false rumor that the Odessa shooter had a Beto sticker on his car. This was even echoed by Trump advisors. washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/…
As a campaign, we’re almost entirely powerless to stop misinformation. We can tweet corrections, but only a fragment of the people exposed will see it. This rests on Twitter, Facebook, and Google who let this go completely unchecked.
On Twitter, we saw thousands of tweets about this conspiracy theory, some with more than 10,000 retweets. The one from "Sue Moore" is where we believe the entire thing started.
