Florida Progressive Caucus Calls for Putnam to Withdraw from Governor's Race

Susan Smith, President of the Democratic Progressive Caucus of Florida, has released the following statement:
The Democratic Progressive Caucus of Florida calls for the immediate withdrawal of Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services Adam Putnam from the governor's race.
Commissioner Putnam's failure to ensure that concealed weapons background checks were carried out and his blatant disregard for the rule of law disqualify him from leading our state. His gross incompetence and lack of accountability are evidence that he has a careless disregard for the safety of Floridians.
We deserve better.

The Progressive Revolution Is Being Led by a Black Woman

Every day since Sen. Bernie Sanders tapped her to lead his political organization, Nina Turner has been on a mission to push the Democratic establishment to realize the inevitable: The political revolution is here, whether they want to accept it or not. The future of the party—the working poor, minorities, the white working-class—can no longer depend on safe, centrist leadership. It needs revolutionaries. here

Florida Berners Please Help

Meet  The Mayor
Andrew Gillum is the son of a bus driver and construction worker, and he’s the only non-millionaire running against three millionaires and a billionaire. 
-----
 "Florida Democrats want to be inspired
not bought by millionaires and billionaires."
Sound familiar? Get inspired Florida Berners.
-----
Ideas and records will win this primary!
-----
The mayor is the only progressive in this race to take Florida back for working people, and his message is resonating with Florida Democrats. Polling shows that once voters learn about his vision and track record, he jumps out to 
a double-digital lead.

Florida Democratic voters want to hear a progressive message

Words from The Mayor
-----
Democrats “need to make sure they’re creating an agenda [voters] can see themselves in,” the Tallahassee mayor said at a town hall in Orlando on Thursday night. “Yes, deal with Trump, but by the same token, let’s not make him the centerpiece of our electoral success.”
-----
“It’s my belief that the way we’re going to win this race — not just the primary, but the general — is by giving more of our voters a reason to turn out, I don’t think we’ve given the best stimulus to the voters who are required to turn out for Democrats to win. Largely those voters are black, brown, younger and poorer — and let me tell you, I trust my chances turning out those constituencies better than any candidate in this race.” 
Andrew Gillum
-----
“Over the course of the campaign, everybody’s redefining themselves, everybody’s progressive all of a sudden.
 I was getting lonely out there."
