Just $5 — that's all I'm asking you to chip in today, friend. But if you'd like a good reason why you should donate now, I can give you five:

1. Floridians are already voting in the race that experts at The Washington Post say could decide Senate control. Mail-in ballots are being processed, and in-person voting has begun, with record turnout in some counties!

2. With his favorability rating at 35%, Rick Scott is one of the least popular Republicans in Florida — and he's never won a race by more than 1.15% of the vote.

3. I've flipped a red seat before, and new polls have me within striking distance of doing it again — so despite spending over $38 MILLION on ads to smear me, Rick Scott just gave his campaign another $3 million of his fortune last week.

4. Election Day is just 11 days away, so time is running out to fight back and prove that Florida's race cannot, and will not, be bought again.

5. Unlike my opponent, I don't have a massive personal fortune to power this campaign — which means every single cent you give fuels our efforts to knock on doors, run TV ads, and mobilize voters to join the movement to retire Rick Scott while there's still time left.

That's why your donation of $5 — or anything you can spare toward my daily $500,000 goal before midnight — is so critical in this final leg of the race. So please, friend, will you rush $5 or more now to help me flip Florida and keep the Senate blue?

I can't win this without you — thank you,

Debbie Mucarsel-Powell
