Murphy WON'T run against Marco after all: https://www.politico.com/news/2021/05/24/stephanie-murphy-marco-rubio-senate-490563

Maybe they're saving her for 2024?

Sounds like Democrats will be uniting behind Val Demings for 2022. I hope Murphy runs against Rick Scott in 2024. She seemed to hint at a 2024 Senate run in a video announcing her decision:

Looks like she came to her senses. It won't save Demings from ruining her career, however.

Hispanic voters, that are key to victory in Florida, are becoming Republican as we saw recently in McAllen, Texas in a city that has an 85 % Hispanic population in a county that voted 58 % Biden and they elected a Republican mayor. That is mainly because of Hispanics’ opposition to socialism and support to free enterprise and because of the problems caused by the current border crisis. And that's why Hispanic voters will help put Rubio over the top

You're seriously going to unironically use a low turnout (12%) Saturday election in another state, in a part of said state that is infamous for low turnout even in regular elections, as part of a serious argument? Come on, you're better than this.

Good fundraising number, but this is probably another case of Dem donors misplacing their funds again, like they always do.
