Friend: The Florida primary is just three weeks away – and Floridians are already voting. I have a time-sensitive update ...

FIRST: I launched my campaign for the U.S. Senate last June and have outraised Marco Rubio every quarter since with your help.

THEN: I launched my first TV ads to share my story with more Floridians to pull ahead – and we narrowed Rubio's polling advantage to single digits.

NOW: Winning the nomination means all eyes will be on Florida's general election – and Marco Rubio is already panicking.

He's begging for donations on Fox News Radio and launching an attack ad blitz with the help of Mitch McConnell's committee to defeat me. That's all before I was even the nominee.

With the full force of Rubio, McConnell and the GOP against us, we need to raise every dollar we can to flip this seat blue. I need your help to raise $75,000 before midnight and surge ahead in this close race – but I'm about to come up short.

Please, will you donate $5 right now to help me reach my goal and build the resources I need to send Rubio packing and defend our Senate majority?

Thank you for your support,

Val Demings
