HELP PATRICK MURPHY, being 'challenged' by West.

Not sure if you have heard, but even before Election Day ended, Allen West has been making false accusations about the electoral process. He is refusing to concede and claims the result is illegitimate. West has over $2 million in the bank, has hired teams of lawyers, and has filed two lawsuits.

When other campaigns have been faced with similiar situations, they have been burdened with legal bills and lengthy and expensive fights that could go on for weeks -- months even. We need urgent resources for our Victory Protection Fund to make sure we can protect this victory.

We would not be asking for more funds if it was not so urgent. We threw everything we had at winning in the last few days. We can't let West try to take away our voices just because he has millions in the bank. Please consider a gift today.

This victory is ours. Thank you for all that you have done to help me.

Onward,



Patrick Murphy
Florida's 18th District
