I am so incredibly grateful to Team Valimont and every person who has banged on a door, made a phone call, donated, or simply believed in this campaign. Thank you for standing with me. We wouldn't have made it this far without you. - Gay 🧡

We believe in you! You epitomize strength, compassion and perseverance. Please keep going. Please keep fighting. You represent the best our democracy has got.
Also the inroads u made in that part of Florida are key to Democrats finally regaining the Governors office in 2026. Democrats don’t necessarily have to win everywhere, just chip away at the margins in conservative & former Democratic strongholds.
No doubt. Winning Escambia County, FL, even a special U.S. House District race for the first time in 34 years will go down as one of the great accomplishments for the Democratic party in the South for many years to come. Well-done, Captain/Madame Valimont.
I admire your perserverence and strength running an election in a district that keep picking one terrible scandal-ridden candidate (Matt Gaetz) after another (Jimmy Patronis). I hope you continue to fight the good fight and speak for the thousands of people who did vote for you.
Thank you for your sacrifice of time money and energy to try and give Florida the representation that we deserve. It’s people like you that keep me hopeful.
Very proud of your fight and your campaign and even though you did not win the election, the gains are astounding!!! You and Weil made huge inroads and changed the minds of thousands of voters! Keep fighting!
There are volunteers at @electiontruth.bsky.social willing to analyze election results data for free for any potential funny business. Worth reaching out to them to see if they can get the data they need to analyze. You can still request a recount, if they do find anything funny in the data. ✌️
that's one more Dem
one less Repub

Congress must vote to enact Trump's tariffs
We can see the chaos the threat caused
Make each responsible for their vote
4 Republicans voting NO will slice some more of the delusional trance Trump has placed upon the country and the world
You did well for the area. I was really frustrated that my mail in vote was imm rejected for a “missing or not matching sig” and I had to send in an ID to get it counted.I wonder how many others had issues & didn’t have time to get it straight? 1st time since 2010 that has happened. #militaryvoter
Ms. Valimont: just want to say how grateful so many of us are for your courage and tenacity in yesterday’s special election. You have shown the way and have made a difference. I hope we see you in Congress soon!
Thank you for your valiant effort and clarion call to action. I hope you remain active in steering the Democratic Party onward to victory in Florida; the campaign has just begun.
I followed your campaign closely. Will you continue to work to change FL blue with helping other candidates, like Josh Weil will be doing? You go girl!!
I live in NY but phone banked for you. You ran an amazing and impressive campaign. You have given so many of us hope. I hope you take good care of yourself.

And I'll be sure to let Jimbo know it, too.
You cut the margin by half, and that was quite an accomplishment in a highly gerrymandered, red district.
Congrats on flipping Escambia County blue—a testament to your dedication and hard work!
Thank you!
Don’t give up. Please stay in the good fight.
Please Please Please Stay in the fight! You will win that seat in 2026!

But therefore I'm no politician and would be thrown from stage in a femtosecond ...
I prefer to put the fingers in the wound..
