Disgusting — absolutely disgusting.

When you receive your updated Voter Information Card in the mail, be sure to review it, paying close attention to your polling place location and voting districts.

[Sarasota County Supervisor of Elections @sarasotavotes]

As a result of recent redistricting by the Florida Legislature and other local government bodies, every registered voter in Sarasota County is receiving an updated Voter Information Card. Look for the new cards in the mail in the coming days.

My name is Raquel Pacheco, and I am running in Florida against one of the co-sponsors of Florida's 15 week abortion ban.

If Ileana Garcia wins, she will try to pass a complete ban. I won't let her.

[Rep. Anna V. Eskamani, PhD 🔨 @AnnaForFlorida]

Before I log off for the night, I want folks to see how Florida State House Reps voted on an amendment sponsored by Rep. @MarieWoodsonFL to create an exception for rape & incest in HB5, the 15 week abortion ban.

N means they voted AGAINST it.

Did you know there is a difference between your precinct and your polling place? The precinct you live in determines which contests will be on your ballot and where you vote on election day. Your polling location is the actual place where you go to vote on election day.

[Sarasota County Supervisor of Elections @sarasotavotes]

“Which school board races will be on the ballot for the August 23 Primary Election?” Districts 1, 4 and 5. And remember, all registered Sarasota County voters can vote in the school board contests regardless of where they live.

Reminder: Democrats are trying to pass a bill to ban oil and gas companies from price gouging and every single Republican is opposing it.

“Gov. DeSantis’ proposed map is a blatantly unconstitutional attack on Black representation in Florida and a violation of the Fair Districts Amendment. We, the people of Florida, are not going anywhere, and the fight is not over.” https://t.co/4zTgFpAsjj

"The Republican-run legislature squandered weeks of the regular session trying to control what teachers and corporations can say and do instead of addressing a mess that alarms millions of Floridians: a meltdown in the home insurance market." https://t.co/7gWCmqRB3L

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

Why did 192 Republicans vote against a $28 million emergency fund to address the baby formula shortage?

There’s one thing DeSantis’s Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo clearly communicated to Senator Tina Polsky when he refused to wear a mask while visiting her office even though she’s been diagnosed with breast cancer: I don’t care about your health.

[Florida Democrats @FlaDems]

Tampa Bay Times Editorial Board on FL Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo: “His unsettling comments and the disrespect he showed a state senator last week only raise (again) the question: What was Gov. Ron DeSantis thinking in making this appointment?”

Gov. DeSantis continually works against Democrats' vaccination efforts, putting Floridians at unnecessary risk. We must elect Democrats to ensure safety against COVID-19 in Florida and that starts with voter registration.  Join us at https://t.co/uJpl6uSUaU.
