There are also several ballot initiatives and constitutional amendments we will also advocate to pass. We have a lot of work to do. Over the next 60+ days, we will be required to reach out to our family, friends, colleagues, and neighbors. We can make a difference. If you are interested in connecting with any of the campaigns listed above, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at johnny.boykins@pinellasdemocrats.com. We will be continuing our Operation Sweat Equity Campaign to Flip Pinellas Blue. Onward and Upward.
Democrats across Florida have spoken and have advanced a stellar group of nominees from Governor to State House to County Commission and School Board. The primary was hard fought and for the most part. Democrats talked about kitchen table issues and obstacles that we face as a state. I think Democrats and Floridians are better because of those debates. Now it is the time for us to stand in solidarity with our nominees and work like crazy to not only flip Pinellas Blue but Florida Blue in November. We have an opportunity to reimagine our state in ways that can have historical and generational impacts. That makes me excited. With that said, I don’t believe in some magical blue wave. We are going to need to put in the hard work to elect Democrats up and down the ticket. The GOP is working hard to keep this state in Republican control. They will be knocking doors, make phone calls, and turning out voters. We need to do it better. Let’s capitalize on the momentum of this moment. Let’s put in the work required to get out the vote as we have never done before. We can make history. We can chart a new course.
