Florida Democrats are hoping their home state will turn blue in the upcoming election. State Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried says it’s possible.
“We have an opportunity here in the State of Florida to turn our state blue and to make sure that we are turning the page on this historic, awful, horrific chapter of the last four years of the Trump administration," said Fried.
Florida elected President Donald Trump by about 1.4 percentage points in 2016. But Barack Obama won Florida in 2012 by 0.9 percentage points.
Fried joined Democratic Congressman Al Lawson Wednesday at the opening of a Joe Biden campaign center in Tallahassee.
At the center people can pick up yard signs and other supplies to help show their support for Presidential Candidate Joe Biden.
