john, this is Debbie Mucarsel-Powell in Florida.
This is NOT the news I needed today.
Until a few minutes ago, I was riding high: we reached our EOQ goal, my first ads were on the air, and the polls showed the tides clearly turning in our favor. So this was a humbling wake-up call.
No matter how much momentum is behind us, I can't compete with Rick Scott's nine-figure fortune on my own — but it won't stop me from trying.
That's why I've set a RAPID-RESPONSE $500,000 GOAL to help me keep my ads live and overcome Scott's self-funded attacks.
Will you please give $10 now to split between me and Tina Smith to ensure our movement to flip Florida and keep the Senate blue stays afloat?
Sure, Rick may have barely eked out a 10,033-vote victory after spending $64 MILLION in 2018 — but since then, his net worth has only multiplied.
Even if I am less than 1 percent behind him in the polls, and his approval rating with voters is in the mud, when it comes to Florida's super-expensive ad market, cash resources, and simple name ID, I'm still the underdog.
And now that he's spent over $37 MILLION in total to stop me, my only chance of doing it is with the immediate help of grassroots Democrats like you.
After spending millions to stay in power, Rick Scott won't give up Florida's Senate seat without a fight. So, john, before the emergency midnight deadline on my $500,000 goal, can I count on you to rush $10, $25, or anything you can spare NOW to me and Tina Smith to help me stop him from buying it again?
