Visiting a restaurant where he signed a bill into law, Gov. Ron DeSantis riffed on many topics, including property taxes, a summertime elimination of the state sales tax on fi****ms and ammunition, which Florida communities still have lots of Democrats, and the New York City mayoral primary.
He also weighed in on the price of the restaurant's grouper sandwich.

Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried unveils $1 million Pendulum program — "because the pendulum is starting to swing here in the state of Florida” — a year-round effort to base organizers in communities, especially where “voters have felt overlooked.”
“When we show up for every voter in every Zip code in every year, we will win.”

“I know that people call Florida a red state these days. But I’m here as living proof. If a Democrat can win in Kentucky, Democrats can win in Florida,” Gov. Andy Beshear assures Florida Democrats …

“I know that people call Florida a red state these days. But I’m here as living proof. If a Democrat can win in Kentucky, Democrats can win in Florida,” Gov. Andy Beshear assures Florida Democrats who gathered in Hollywood.
Beshear and U.S. Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey also sought to burnish their political brands through unspoken — but very much present — signals about the 2028 presidential race.

“We will elect Democrats up and down the ballot,” Florida Democratic Party chair declares. “And we will be, once again, a beacon of light and hope, not just for the South, but for the entire country.”
Maybe not. Other Democrats aren't so sanguine about their party's prospects in the solidly red state.

“We will elect Democrats up and down the ballot,” declares Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried. “And we will be, once again, a beacon of light and hope, not just for the South, but for the e…

When people see Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Josh Weil, some are struck by how much he looks like Donald Trump Jr., a comparison that doesn’t seem to thrill the candidate.
“I have heard that before. I find it greatly insulting.”
Maybe, Weil says, he’ll change hair products.

Josh Weil provided a jolt of hope and excitement to Democrats in Florida — and around the country — during an ultimately unsuccessful congressional campaign earlier this year.
Hopes to parlay that experience to victory in an even bigger contest: U.S. Senate by challenging Florida's appointed senator, Republican Ashley Moody.

Broward's first Black female mayor received death threats after her information was posted on KKK-affiliated website. Year later she received white, powdery substance in mail.
Florida's first openly LGBTQ Black senator received threats after a speech went viral. “Probably the scariest few weeks of my life."
Legislation would shield home addresses.

Florida elected officials have received harrowing threats well before the weekend assassination of a Minnesota state representative and her husband, and the shooting of a state senator and his wife…

David Jolly, a Democratic candidate for Florida governor, advocates increasing restrictions on fi****ms to reduce gun violence. “When Republicans suggest that guns aren’t the problem, people are the problem, they’re lying to you.”
Jolly also promises to talk to gun owners and others he says have too often been ignored by Democratic candidates. “Gun owners are not the problem. Our gun laws are."

Memorial Healthcare System LGBTQ Stonewall Pride sponsor in 2024. Not in 2025.
Memorial is brand name for government agency, the South Broward Hospital District, run by governor-appointed board.
Spokesperson: “Our sponsorship committee regularly reviews and rotates sponsorship investments to ensure we are supporting stakeholders in our primary service area and sometimes beyond. As resources are limited, we are unable to sponsor every initiative each year.

National trend of corporate sponsor pullbacks is affecting the three major LGBTQ Pride parades and festivals in South Florida.
Stonewall Pride in Wilton Manors (the region’s last one of the spring), has lost some and retained some.
Notably still supporting: retailer Target.

David Jolly launches Florida governor campaign, seeking coalition of Democrats, independents and Republicans.
“Math is math. There are not enough Democratic voters in the state of Florida for a Democrat to win the governorship.”
Promises focus on cost of living. “Affordability, affordability, affordability. That is the No. 1 issue.”

David Jolly is running for governor of Florida. “Affordability, affordability, affordability. That is the No. 1 issue.” Jolly, a Republican turned independent turned Democrat, has left his po…
