Friends - -
I just walked offstage from another debate with Senator Sanders -- our first since Super Tuesday. Our team had a historic day on March 1st, but Senator Sanders took three of our four contests this weekend, and his campaign has committed to fighting in every single primary, starting with the contests in Michigan and Mississippi on Tuesday.
I'm going to fight my heart out on the campaign trail, just like I did on the debate stage tonight, but I can't win without you fighting by my side. Show me you're ready to win this nomination. Chip in $5 right now, and let's make history together.
Thank you,
Hillary
