“I Don’t See Your Name on the List”

 

(Editor’s Note: Happy New Year! Below is a small taste of 2014…) 

 

 

 

California is first in innovation, entertainment, technology, food safety, and environmental protection. But we trail the rest of the nation in voting.

I’m running for Secretary of State to change that, because our democracy is strongest when everyone participates, and the best progress is possible when all voices are heard.

To bring about this change, we first need to introduce existing voters to our campaign — and in a big state like California, that requires a healthy budget.

Will you help make sure we have the funds we need to run a strong campaign?

As a state senator, I championed legislation that expanded voter registration — and now, eligible voters can register while signing up for health care through Covered California.

But I want to do even more as Secretary of State to reach the millions of unregistered voters in our state and bring them into our election process. In my first term, I will work to register at least a million more voters and engage two million California voters who are now opting out of elections.

I also believe strongly that voters have a right to know how campaigns are financed. I pledge to increase transparency, strengthen campaign finance rules, and close the reporting loopholes that cause Californians to lose faith in their government.

But I need your support to do this.

If you agree, please make a contribution of $5 — or whatever you can afford — to my campaign before the December 31 deadline.

I’m humbled that progressive leaders throughout California have endorsed our campaign: Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom, Speaker of the Assembly John Pérez, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson, dozens of legislators, and 11 members of the California congressional delegation.

Can I count on your support too?

Thank you so much for your early support of my campaign for Secretary of State. I look forward to campaigning with you in the months ahead.

Truly,

Alex Padilla

I know, I’ve said it before, but if we get outraised this quarter, our campaign could be in serious trouble heading into the election year.

The good news is that this year, we’ve received over 4,200 online donations to our campaign.

But I don’t see your name on the list.

Will you make a small donation to help us stay on track to reach our year-end goal before our FEC deadline.

With two right-wing opponents on the attack, it’s going to take a huge grassroots effort to win in 2014 and keep Ventura County out of Tea Party hands.

That’s why I need your help before it’s too late. Please, chip in just a small donation.
