Friend – we're SO CLOSE to flipping Florida blue! We're on the cusp of winning, but there is one thing missing: Your donation ahead of my midnight deadline tonight.

Because of grassroots donors like you, polls show me TIED with Marco Rubio. I can't thank you enough for believing in this campaign. The polls are proof that we can win – but I need your continued support from now until Election Day.

The GOP is spending BIG to defeat me in these final days, friend. Marco Rubio has dropped $15.7 MILLION on TV ads this year, and the Republican Senate campaign arm has millions that they could dump into Florida because they know this race could determine which party wins Senate control.

That's why it's so important that I reach my $60,000 goal before my midnight deadline. If I miss this goal, I'll be forced to make difficult budget decisions that could mean losing in Florida and handing Senate control over to Mitch McConnell.

I know you care deeply about our Democratic Senate majority, so I have to ask you because I have nowhere else to turn: Will you donate $5 right now to split between my campaign and Ben Ray Luján to help me reach my midnight goal, counter GOP spending to defeat me and protect our Senate majority from Mitch McConnell?

Thank you for your support,

Val Demings
