Florida Democrats were wildly optimistic last week regarding their position in the state that has been moving to the right as the years go by. Yet, they have not so far walked their words in terms of putting the kind of money that it will take to win there.
“Florida is in play,” Debbie Mucarsel-Powell – a Miami Congresswoman says at a bus tour aimed at mobilizing the defense of women’s right of reproductive liberty in Boynton Beach.

Addressed the camera after flipping a page in a biography of republican presidential nominee – former President Donald Trump – where Harris is mentioned.
The fact that the Republicans are spending cats and dogs in their campaign gives a clue as to why Scott is ridiculing the statements from the Democrats that Florida is still feasible. “They are so stinking far from the polls and the values that Florida voters don and #8217, and they do not stand an ice balls chance of winning Florida.” Columbia University, New York City.

As many as four in ten Americans appear to back Harris achieving the Party’s nomination in her own right according to Democrats’ how satisfied they are with nominees of the party Harris as compared with only two in ten Democrats doing the same for the months of March stating that Joe Biden should be the nominee.
But Mucarsel-Powell’s task is still very challenging. If some polling data put this Scott on top, however, that was but one poll and poor poll at that national Democrats have yet to venture heavily into Florida’s expensive media markets to pound the airwaves. Since becoming the Democratic nominee, Harris, who has been quite the fundraising machine, has spent $25 million of her campaign funds for the advancement of those in the Democratic party who are running for House and Senate races – only $10 million of this was directed to the Senate races and the remaining to other elections. There was no response from Harris campaign concerning how the mentioned funds are being used.
Former Senator Rick Scott, who loses popularity, has voiced his intention to issue a leadership challenge in the Senate. “I plan to expand the national recruitment,” Scott said.

However, one of the Michigans, Senator Klobuchar-Amy in particular, was the one who actually had some surrounded big enough so that people in quite a few of them, unlike Mucarpowell, was getting a little more than fulfillment and was busy helping other Democrats out through election season.
“Sure, they could have chosen any other place in the country. They chose to begin here in Palm Beach County, Donald Trump’s home territory,” said Fried. “That brings out the extent of the importance of Florida, and that they are still going to be following what it is that is happening on the ground, bringing in surrogates here and ensuring that we are in play for November – and its purpose.”
The bus tour event was attended by around 150 people.
Fried state that the Democratic Party has suffered a lot of advertisement expenditure in Florida but that they are expanding their attention to campaigning on the public stage.

This time round the Florida ballot has changed its face from what it was two years to the midterm elections at which US Sen. Marco Rubio and Gov. Ron Desantis oil the top of Florida ticket.

Brian Ballard, who was one of the leading fundraisers for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign in 2020 and is a Republican political consultant, stated that the poor spending campaign by Democrats would make it more difficult for Mucarsel-Powell to go all over the state and introduce herself to people, as opposed to Scott, the Governor of Florida from 2010 to 2018 and now a Senator.
As far as the national party is concerned, these priorities are often quite a leisurely engagement, which Ballard termed saying, “is usually a sign of a losing campaign.”
“Florida is not in play,” Ballard note. “I wish the Democrats go the whole way and waste loads of dollars in the presidential contest in Florida. That will move the needle not at all. If she is depending on Democrats subsidizing the campaign at the top most price, she is depending on fools’ gold at best.”
The Florida contest is not of interest to the national democrats, the majority of whom are trying to protect their multitude of senate seats from the republicans this year. Instead, they have directed almost all their attention and efforts to the protection of the seats they are occupying, including against republicans in any way in Ohio and Montana.

Scott alleges in the interview that he is not “taking any risk” by being careless towards his own race. Scott was however able to allocate some time towards canvassing for other Republicans, including seeking relevant support in Georgia last week for a town hall in Bacelton County, N. E. Atlanta, where combat was present.
“That’s a team sport,” Scott remarked about his activities or relations with other members of the GOP seeking offices.
