Hi, friend – did you see my message yesterday? Donald Trump just held a massive rally here in Florida – he's mobilizing his base in Florida for the GOP and Marco Rubio. That's why my team set a rapid response fundraising goal of $500,000. And luckily, a group of fired-up Democratic donors has offered to MATCH all donations to my campaign until 8 p.m. ET tonight to help us reach this ambitious goal!

I can't remind you of this number enough: 0.12 percentage points. That's what decided Florida's last Senate race. My race might come down to the margin of error, and Trump's rally shows the GOP is all in to do whatever it takes to win in Florida. But I'm falling short of my rapid-response fundraising goal, so I have to ask you again:

Can I count on you to donate $5 or more while all donations are being DOUBLED to help me win in Florida, defeat Marco Rubio and defend our Senate majority?

Thank you so much,

Val Demings

I have an urgent update, friend: Donald Trump is holding his final 2022 Florida rally tonight.

Republicans are terrified that their grip on Florida is in serious danger: It's why our state is one of Trump's last rallies. CNN called Marco Rubio one of the most vulnerable senators in the country – and Florida Senate races come down to the margin of error (0.12 points in the last race).

Trump is riling up his base at the eleventh hour because we’ve built the momentum to win – and the GOP is desperate to keep this seat red because Florida could determine Senate control.

I’ve had a major tailwind at my back because of grassroots donors like you, friend – but this is one of the most expensive Senate races of 2022. And Trump, Mitch McConnell and GOP outside groups have poured millions into this race and pulled out every trick in the book to defeat me.

Time is running out to stand up against the millions of dollars the GOP has thrown behind Marco Rubio. If I'm going to win in Florida and defend and expand our Senate majority, I need this grassroots team to step up right now. Tonight's rally proves it.

You can help by pitching in a donation to hit our $500,000 rapid response goal by midnight. Can I count on you to contribute $5 or more now to defeat Marco Rubio and protect our Democratic Senate majority?

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Moments like this are a crucial test for our campaign – and whether we can muster the resources it truly takes to win and defend Democratic control of the Senate. I appreciate you doing your part and stepping up, and I'm so grateful for each and every member of this team.
