All voters vote amendment getting pushback
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. One of several amendments Florida voters will see on their general election ballot will be one labeled All Voters Vote. Amendment 3 would allow every registered voter to cast their vote in a single primary election. In a previous interview, the All Voters Vote committee told us that the idea of two GOP candidates advancing to the general election ignores reality. Theyre forgetting about 3.7 million voters who are nonparty affiliates who couldnt have voted in those primaries, said Glen Burhans of All Voters Vote. So far there has been little organized opposition to All Voters Vote.
Democrats face climate, immigration issues in Florida
Inslee, who has made climate change a focus of his campaign, visited the Everglades on Monday and planned Tuesday to stop in the Little Haiti neighborhood to talk about how climate change is exacerbating economic equality in that community. With the debates drawing focus to the state, Florida Democrats have made suggestions to presidential hopefuls about places they should visit and topics they should cover as they try to court Floridians in the coming months. Shaw said talking about how the candidates hope to mitigate the effects of climate change is a must. If youre in Florida and youre not talking about climate change, youre doing it wrong, said Shaw, who has endorsed South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg for president. Eskamani said she wants to hear candidates talk about their policies on abortion access, ending corporate welfare and addressing climate change.
