Friend, as we head into the final week of this campaign, I want you to hear this from me directly: We can win this race, and here's why:

Because of this historic grassroots team made up of people like you who have helped us outraise Marco Rubio every single quarter since we launched this campaign.

Because we're running TV ads and investing in voter outreach to make sure we reach as many people across Florida with our message as we possibly can.

Because this campaign is rooted in how to build a brighter future for Florida. Unlike Marco Rubio's lies and fear tactics, our message is resonating with people far and wide.

But friend, you don't have to take it from me. Polls show me neck and neck with Marco Rubio in this final stretch. 

But if we're going to pull ahead and take the lead, we must raise $100,000 by midnight tonight to have the resources we need to reach more voters. So will you to chip in $5 to split between my campaign and Jacky Rosen's right now?

Please, will you rush $5 or more to split between my campaign and Jacky Rosen's now to help me defeat Marco Rubio, flip Florida blue and protect our narrow Senate majority?

Thank you so much,

Val Demings
