In 2016, Alan Grayson left the Hispanic-access #FL09 to run for #FLSEN

State Senator Darren Soto managed to win a 3-way primary, becoming the first Puerto Rican Congressman from FL.

The primary was only 29% Hispanic but Soto benefited from a split in the white vote #flapol Image The district at the time was still emerging as a Hispanic-access seat. However, weaker Hispanic registration and turnout rate meant that Hispanic voting power always lagged. This is why Alan Grayson had managed to take it when it was drawn in 2012. #flapol

Today, let me offer a THREAD on SD3, where Incumbent Loranne Ausley (D) is at risk of losing in her Biden +3 district; which covers the Tallahassee region #flapol #sayfie This district is heavily dominated by Leon County, which holds Tallahassee. In a modern context, Leon and maj-black Gadsden County dominate the vote total. However, the outside rural counties are deep red, with most blue pockets being maj-black precincts #flapol

Several months ago, Ron DeSantis appointed a white Republican to the majority-black Gadsden County’s commission. That appointee has now resigned after a KKK costume photo emerged.

I delve into Gadsden politics and Ron’s horrible pick

#flapol #sayfie Image While I’ll give Ron the benefit of the doubt that the photo, which is old, was not likely known, it still was insulting for him to appoint a white Republican to Florida’s lone majority black commission - especially in replacing a black democrat #flapol.
