John, You're a key part of this movement, so I wanted you to be the first to know this: For months, polls have shown me behind Marco Rubio – but after we outraised him nearly 3 to 1 in a previous quarter, a brand-new poll shows us TIED, 46-46! Thank you for helping me give Marco Rubio the toughest fight of his career. And now I'll be up-front about where we stand: I'm 1 point down in recent polls, and once again I'm counting on this powerful grassroots team to help with the resources I need to surge ahead in these final weeks. Will you do your part by splitting a donation between my campaign and Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot today? In the last few months, polls have showed me neck and neck in a race that could decide Senate control – and I never could have made this incredible progress without supporters like you. Here's the problem: Marco Rubio and Mitch McConnell just spent $1.3 million on TV ads in key areas of Florida to take back the lead, and there's no doubt national Republican PACs will pour even more money into attack ads against me when they see this week's polls. I clearly have momentum on my side – but with the GOP running ads that misrepresent me and everything I stand for, I need to make serious investments in voter outreach immediately. I need to raise $50,000 before midnight to counter GOP attacks. It's the ONLY way to take the lead in what's shaping up to be the most expensive Senate race in the country – so I'm really counting on you to give. Thank you so much for believing in me and this campaign. Together, we're showing the naysayers that we have the power to blow the GOP out of the water on Election Day. – Val Demings
