Friend, I just left a finance meeting and will keep this short: When I kicked off this campaign for Senate, I saw a surge of support, but now donations have majorly slowed. Take a look:
I still need to raise $8,798 to hit my can't-miss fundraising goal.
If I can't hit my grassroots fundraising goals, this campaign won't have the resources to compete and win. The Senate Republican Campaign Committee and Marco Rubio just raised $32 million between them – money that can be used to flood Florida's airwaves with ads to defeat me. Plain and simple.
