Dems are underinvesting in Florida because they think “the state is racist,” Angie Nixon said.

“They made a huge mistake by not investing in this state,” she told @DashaBurns. “We have seen the devastation of it all across the country.”

The Democratic Party and its leaders are not “reflective of what the electorate looks like,” Angie Nixon told @DashaBurns.

She added that Democrats need to call out racism within the party or it will “hemorrhage voters.”

[Dasha Burns @DashaBurns]

NEW: @AngieNixon tells me Democrats have made a “huge mistake” by underinvesting in Florida — and argues her Senate race is winnable.

I pressed her on the party’s hesitation, her decision to join the DSA, and her call to jail Sen. Ashley Moody over the Hope Florida scandal.

Plus, she weighs in on her plans for the Senate and whether she would support Schumer as leader.
