THOMAS -- Here’s the latest from Florida, one of our 12 target states:
➞ New polling shows Democrat Andrew Gillum is in a STATISTICAL TIEin the governor’s race!
➞ But the Republican Governors Association is spending $10 MILLION to prop up his extreme Republican opponent, Ron DeSantis.
➞ DeSantis also has Fox News on his side.
➞ Racist attacks are flying at Gillum, who would be the first African-American governor in Florida history.
Every major political forecaster is calling this race a toss-up. But if DeSantis wins, a decade’s worth of fair maps could be in jeopardy.
Will you pitch in to elect strong Democratic candidates in states like Florida?
We can trust Andrew Gillum to defend Floridians from racial and partisan gerrymandering. But we can’t say the same for Ron DeSantis, who:
➞ Used a racial slur against Gillum immediately after winning the Republican nomination.
➞ Has attended conferences put on by a right-wing activist who has espoused racist and Islamophobic beliefs.
➞ Filmed a campaign ad in which he plays a game called “Build the Wall.”
Does this sound like someone we can trust to champion and amplify the voices of communities of color across Florida? We think not. THOMAS, many of the governors elected in 2018 will be in place to either defend or undermine fair elections for the next decade. Let’s make sure we elect Democrats! Will you chip in to help us fight in states like Florida?-- Team NDRC
