Friend, with just 16 days until Election Day, and Floridians starting to vote tomorrow, I wanted to give you a quick update on where things stand in this our fight to defend the Senate:

Here's where we are: After months of trailing Marco Rubio by a couple points, two recent polls show that this race is TIED.

Here's the problem: Marco Rubio just poured $1.5 MILLION into TV ads in a desperate last attempt to buy this Senate seat.

Here's how you can help: Together, we have built a truly historic campaign for U.S. Senate – but if we don't keep the momentum up, we will lose. I'm relying on grassroots donors like you to keep me in this race, so I have to ask:

Friend, with only 16 days left until Election Day, will you chip in whatever you can spare to my campaign now so I can defeat Marco Rubio and defend our Democratic Senate majority?
