Hey friend – Zack here, Congresswoman Demings' campaign manager.

I'm about to call a finance meeting, so I wanted to make sure you saw the Congresswoman's email below before I share some tough news with her and the rest of the team: As of an hour ago, we're still $9,660 short of our midnight fundraising goal – with only hours left to make up the shortfall.

I'm reaching out to you personally because I thought it was important that you know what happens if we don't hit goals like this. I won't be able to make the advertising investments we need to stay competitive. I won't be able to mobilize field staff to register Floridians to vote, just when national Republicans are putting $10 million behind their own efforts.

Plain and simple, it means some difficult budget decisions when we need to go all in to flip Florida blue. So when I come out of this finance meeting, I want to be able to tell the Congresswoman we crushed this goal. Will you please rush a donation of $5 or more now – seriously, whatever you can spare to help us hit this goal – so we can defeat Marco Rubio and expand our Democratic Senate majority?

Thanks – talk more soon.

Subject: We can't let Florida flip red permanently 

Florida is one of the states most likely to determine Senate control, friend, but I'm still falling $12,532 short of my $20,000 fundraising goal. My team pulled your supporter record, and here's what we found:

SUPPORTER RECORD

EMAIL: [email protected]
DONOR STATUS: PENDING
SUGGESTED CONTRIBUTION: $5DEADLINE: 11:59 p.m.

This is the worst time for me to fall short of my can't-miss goal. Between the Senate Republican campaign arm and Marco Rubio himself, the GOP has hauled in more than $32 million to flip the Senate for Mitch McConnell.

So even though The Cook Political Report increased my chances of winning, I have a steep mountain to climb to catch up to their fundraising. 

Since this grassroots team is so strong, I know that if we muster our willpower and dig deep, we will flip Florida blue. And right now, digging deep means hitting these grassroots fundraising goals today and all the way to Election Day.

So please, friend, I urgently need you to help me make up this shortfall before midnight. Rush a contribution of $5 or more now to defeat Marco Rubio and protect our Democratic Senate majority!
