Florida Democrats plan to spend nearly $500,000 on a campaign to urge Hispanic and African American voters to cast their ballots by mail next year

TALLAHASSEE — Florida Democrats, with a financial boost from former Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum, plan to spend nearly a half-million dollars on a campaign to urge Hispanic and African American voters to cast their ballots by mail in the 2020 presidential election.

Gillum said he plans to raise $450,000 on behalf of the Florida Democratic Party to help cover the cost of the campaign, the latest in a string of commitments he's made in advance of 2020. He's raising money for an ambitious voter registration program, and last weekThis latest effort is a way to “building real and lasting infrastructure", Gillum said, and he emphasized the importance of a surge in Democratic turnout in 2020.

Democrats have acknowledged that their past efforts at registering and motivating voters have fallen short, handing the party a series of narrow defeats. In advance of 2020, the party is building field operations across the state, visiting African American churches and targeting Spanish-language media.

Yeah so they can commit fraud again, lol

Mail campaigns are for infirm or people out of country

ikerot This is huge!

Yea vote Trump

Talk about stealing votes. Not a good idea. Let’s make voting mandatory. In person.

Corruption

Because it’s easier to commit voter fraud that way...

But also put money to paper ballots with receipts. And get away from voting machines altogether. And register all the former felons their numbers help tremendously. Vote in high enough numbers where they can’t cheat! 🌊

LOL and then they magically disappear 🙄

Mail ballots are easier to cheat with.

Drop out and match this amount, then double it, TomSteyer

And fortunately the Democratic party has lost the votes of the African-American and Hispanic American.

We vote by mail in the State of Washington. The postage is already paid. It’s great.

they need to TRIPLE that amount

Lol

Hispanic & African American know who provided them with jobs and it was not the Democrats .... Jobs, Security & Health Care is what american care about and POTUS achieved 2 out of 3.

You should have to physically vote, unless you are in the military assigned overseas.

GovRonDeSantis & SenRickScott winning in a blue wave tells realDonaldTrump has FL in the bag

So they can divert and change them

Paper ballots make for easier ballot harvesting & fraud

Why?

Moneybags Bloomberg should write them a check to fund this vote by mail drive as this is chump change for him

Headline of the future: 'Mail In Ballots Mysteriously Disappear in Masse, 'Nothing To See Here', Says Election Official From Broward County.

No voter suppression that way

Why ONLY hispanic and african Americans, why not caucasian? Oh probably because both african americans and hispanics mostly vote democrat. Glad to see the dems are so scared of losing that they are actually investing money into getting votes. KAG

I think that they want all voters to do mail-in ballots so that there is a record. The voting machines have a history of inaccuracies. Mail-in can be documented. There is a history of irregularities and FBI admited that a number of counties were hacked by Russia.

Kindly remember how mail in votes were handled in certain locations in Florida by I plead the Fifth Scott to adjust the votes for himself, & his chosen successor.

How are Hispanic and black voters different from American voters? That’s just racist. Wtf.

Paper ballots.

Isn’t that the easiest way to cheat?

Democrat fraud, here we go

Ballot checks in the mail ?

Cheat mechanism. Media cheers

Matthews: Americans should be allowed to vote -- it's that simpleThe House of Representatives voted today to reinstate the mission of the 1965 Voting Rights Act -- but only one Republican voted with the Democrats. It's not 1965 anymore. In Georgia for example, a greater percentage of African-Americans of voting age, cast votes in the last election than white voters of voting age did. Which Republican ? Well they suck We All need to Exercise Our Right to Vote
