My race in Florida will determine whether Democrats have enough votes in the Senate to protect abortion access – and with TWO polls showing that this race is officially TIED, I'm counting on grassroots supporters like you to help me surge ahead.

I have an incredible opportunity to win in Florida and expand Democrats' Senate majority. I can be the vote we need in the Senate to ban the filibuster and federally restore abortion access.

CNN has called Florida a top pickup opportunity for Democrats, but the issue is this: Once they heard that we'd tied this race, Rubio and the GOP spent another $500,000 on misleading attack ads to defeat me.

If I miss my midnight fundraising goal, I won't have enough resources to reach Floridians and set the record straight – which could mean falling just behind on Election Day and handing the Senate over to Mitch McConnell.

Before my midnight fundraising deadline, will you donate $25 to split between my campaign and Blue Senate Candidate Fund to help me flip Florida blue? Every dollar will help me expand our Democratic Senate majority and protect abortion access.

Thank you for supporting my campaign to keep abortion safe and legal.
