Hey John, Charlie Crist here.

On Monday, I won my debate with Ron DeSantis and held him accountable for trying to use Florida for his own ambition.

As I said on the debate stage: “He won’t even tell you if he’ll serve 4 years if you re-elect him. I mean come on. You deserve better than that. Florida deserves better than that.”

Now we need to lock in the momentum we gained during the debate. Will you rush a rapid response donation right now?

Ron DeSantis peddled the same extremist red-meat his supporters consume so viciously. He relied on fear tactics, divisive language, and hateful lies.

It's clearer than ever that our great state cannot survive another term of his leadership — and that we have to remove him immediately.

My finance team told me that we need a wave of new donations to lock in our momentum and power us across the finish line.

So I'm humbly asking: Will you chip in $5 — or whatever you can — to help me reach more voters with our message and the truth about Ron DeSantis? It’s now or never, John.

I hope I made you proud,

Charlie Crist
