Team, I had to share this news with you immediately:

After months of trailing Marco Rubio in the polls by 2 points, consecutive polls have Rubio and me TIED, 46-46.

This amazing news comes just as I secured the OFFICIAL Democratic nominee for Florida's U.S. Senate race. But, friend, we cannot celebrate just yet.

Because this very second, the GOP is gearing up to bombard us with nonstop attack ads from now until Election Day to defeat me – including a new $1.3 MILLION ad buy that Rubio himself launched right after I won the nomination. So please, will you give $20 or more to split between my campaign and Yvette Clarke to make sure I have the resources to fight back against these new attacks ahead of my must-hit $50,000 midnight fundraising goal?

Team, Rubio and the rest of the GOP are nervous because they know that if I win in Florida, Democrats are virtually guaranteed to maintain Senate control. And if the most recent polls prove anything, it's that we CAN win this.

But only if we continue to work together and shatter fundraising records. Because right now, the GOP is OUTSPENDING me in key areas of Florida, and I need more resources to fight back against their deceitful attack ads and misinformation to pull ahead in this race.

That's why this goal is so important. Hitting this could finally give me the boost I need to pull ahead of Marco Rubio in the polls – but right now, I'm falling short of my $50,000 goal. So I'm asking you personally, because you can tip the scales with your support right now:

Will you donate $20 to split between my campaign and Yvette's right now so I can hit my midnight fundraising goal, defeat Marco Rubio and defend our razor-thin Democratic majority?
