A Little Stogie Fearmongering

Remember Ronda Storms
Tampa's PRIDE used to hold the distinction of the state's largest LGBT pride event. From 2005 to 2013, Hillsborough County enforced a ban on acknowledging, participating or promoting anything to do with gay pride events. The ban was spearheaded by then GOP County Commissioner Ronda Storms 


It wasn't repealed until we elected 
progressive democrat Kevin Beckner.
---
Do we want to go back to that?
Progressives have been making great progress with the addition of Kemp, Smith and Overman.
---
Now they have to it again!
Re-elect Pat Kemp and add Gwen Myers

Majority rules!

Tampa Democrats Failure

They let a republican (Cindy Stuart) beat a Democrat (Kevin Beckner). Not like they weren't warned, (HERE and HERE
at what was at stake.
---
They are gushing over a GOP leaning (DINO), Pam Bondi loving candidate (Nancy Millan) over a lifelong democrat.
---
There are 357,236 Dems 
in this county
---
Beckner lost by 14,059 votes
Where were the LGBT and Anti TBX voters?
Don't blame the Opposition, blame yourself.
Even with the the GOP voter suppression efforts going on right now you couldn't find time to cast your vote? Shame on you!

Hillsborough County Elects Tea Party Endorsed Candidate

Cindy Stuart, a disaster on our county school board has beaten Kevin Beckner, a past county commissioner with a stellar record. 
-------
She was endorsed by the Tampa Tea Party and local Citrus Taliban leader Terry Kimple.
---
She sent out negative mailers financed by shady money calling Beckner a “desperate career politician” who will “push a
 radical agenda.”. HERE
---
Hillsborough County has 
355,166 Democrats

93,181 of them showed up for Beckner.
Is this a preview of November?
What a shame!

Citrus Taliban Terry Kimple Endorses Cindy Stuart

Kevin Beckner is the best and only choice for Hillsborough Clerk of the Court! 
Cindy Stuart should immediately denounce Kemple’s endorsement!
Terry Kemple has long been on the wrong side of history and he is still peddling his hate-filled, bigoted, and discriminatory rhetoric. Kemple, has endorsed Cindy Stuart for Clerk of the Court. Cindy should immediately denounce Terry’s endorsement as he does not represent Hillsborough as a community. Terry Kemple has even spoken out against the Hillsborough Domestic Partner Registry, which benefits more than just the LGBTQ community. HERE
Check out Mr. Kimple on this blog HERE

Bernie: Our Movement is Winning

All across the country, up and down the ballot, progressive candidates are standing up for working people, fighting back against their establishment-backed opponents, and winning their primaries.
We saw it just this week with Cori Bush's remarkable victory in Missouri, and Rashida Tlaib's landslide win defending her seat 
in Michigan.
We've seen it in New York and Washington, with congressional candidates like Jamaal Bowman and Pramila Jayapal. With district attorneys and prosecutor races, too, like Amy Padden in Colorado and Eli Savit in Michigan.
These victories are happening nationwide because our movement has stood together. And now, more progressives across the country with primaries happening very soon are counting on us to stand with them.
---
Making calls for these progressive candidates is the most impactful thing you can do to help during the final stretch of their primaries. HERE

In Tampa (I) recommend
Sky U. White
Kevin Beckner
Jen McDonald
Gary Dolgin 
 Jessica Vaughn

Kevin Beckner Before It Was Popular

For the role of Hillsborough Clerk of Court, I fully endorse Kevin Beckner. Kevin was a trailblazer of human rights long before it was popular, serving as an openly gay county commissioner in Hillsborough, he pushed for LGBTQ rights to be part of the County's protected classes long ago. I am most interested in Kevin's priorities (priorities are noticably absent on other clerk 
candidates websites):
Equal Access to the Justice System

In partnership with the Hillsborough County Bar Association, I will establish a Self-Help Center to provide high-quality legal assistance at an affordable price. Income should not be a barrier to receiving equal access to the justice system.
I will also expand offices and community outreach in underserved and minority neighborhoods.
Fairer Justice System

The Clerk of the Court is responsible for issuing summons to appear for jury duty.

The Sixth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees an individual the right to a trial by an impartial jury. That requires the services of a large number of qualified and diverse jurists.
Did you know the Clerk determines jury calls? I hadn't either.
While we have way further to go to an equitable (or an actual...) justice system, and it's not going to be solved within the Clerk office, it is important the right attitude is within the Clerk's office.
