Dear Sharra, When I launched my campaign for president, a chorus of skeptics reminded me I would be a long shot. Well, last Thursday we shocked a lot of people when we crossed the 65,000-donor threshold to qualify for the first 2020 debates. You made that happen and it is glorious. But there's one major situation that could eliminate me from the debates: How I rank in the national polls. Here's the 6 things you need to know: - My path to the presidential primary accelerates when I stand on that debate stage and speak our vision.
- The DNC will only grant 20 debate spots to candidates, even if more than 20 qualify.
- The DNC requires candidates to meet the 65,000-donor — and we've done that.
- The DNC requires candidates to average 1% or above in the polls — we are not there yet.
- The deadline is June 12th.
- Right now, 23 or more candidates could qualify.
Raising my ranks in the polls is everything right now. Last week, my team was on edge because so many polls weren't including me! You know, it's really hard to register in polls when you're not even listed as a candidate. But that's changing. This week, I'm now hovering around 1% in both the CNN and Fox News polls. I'm right on the cusp. We are so close. We are exceeding all expectations. We must make this happen. We only have until June 12th. If you want to see me on that debate stage stand for our vision, please donate $25 or whatever you can so that we can amplify our message by June 12th. I'm not asking so we can do the impossible. I'm asking so we can do the possible! The competition is getting thicker every day. My greatest challenge in rising in the polls is making sure as many people as possible learn who I am. I have to turn up the volume on my campaign immediately. We are doing this against all odds. And it is happening. I'm the FIRST non-traditional woman candidate in the history of the United States to reach the 65,000-donor threshold to qualify for the upcoming 2020 DNC debates. On April 26th, political analyst Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight declared me a 'major candidate.' 
And, new candidates are joining the race every day. We cannot back down. More Americans need to know who I am and what this campaign stands for so that I register and rise in the polls. We are working around the clock to expand our message, expand our love, and expand our reach. Your donation right now means EVERYTHING in my capacity to rise in the polls and secure my spot on that stage by June 12th. Please give generously and give today. With love and gratitude,
Marianne
