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.
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.
Every single cent you give has a massive impact on my chances of flipping Florida blue.
Thank you,
Debbie
