This is it, friend. Today is Election Day!

As a kid, I never could have imagined this moment. Growing up in the 1960s South, no one gave me a chance to do much of anything – but I made my way. I became the first in my family to graduate college, then Orlando's first woman chief of police, and finally I flipped my congressional district blue.

I can't thank you enough for dreaming of a better America with me – one where a poor Black girl from Jacksonville can grow up to run in one of the most competitive Senate races in the country. Because of you, I'm tied with Marco Rubio, and I just need to ask for your help one last time.

I'm working around the clock to reach as many voters as possible before the polls close at 7 p.m. – but I need to close my $5,642 fundraising gap ASAP. That's why I'm asking you, friend: Can I count on you to make one last donation to this grassroots campaign?

This is your final chance to make an impact, friend, so please don't wait to give: Donate $5 or more right now to become part of the team that flips Florida blue and delivers a Democratic Senate majority.

Thanks for believing in this grassroots movement.
