devastating, and racist news

 


BREAKING NEWS FROM POLITICO:
“Florida Supreme Court locks in DeSantis-backed redistricting map”

This fight is not over, and we will do everything in our power to overturn these racist maps that strip political power from Black people and cut their representation in Florida in half. The conservative Supreme Court in our state is acting as an accomplice to Governor DeSantis efforts to make Black votes count less.

But it’s official, Florida’s gerrymandered congressional maps will not change in time for my race. I’m filing to run in the newly redrawn FL-10.

I always knew I’d be running to represent the community I call home, but I just didn’t know what the final district lines would be.

Now, I need to work harder than ever because these racially gerrymandered maps were designed to stop candidates like me from representing Florida.

I need you to step and become a Founding Donor of my campaign for FL-10 TODAY.

We need to raise $8,424 in the next 24 hours to launch voter outreach initiatives to new voters in FL-10. Getting as many new voters into our movement ASAP will determine whether I win or lose come Election Day. Please rush $27 now >>

DONATE $27

Make no mistake: these maps were drawn specifically to disenfranchise Black and Brown voters.

They want to silence us because they’re THAT afraid of our collective power and they’re THAT afraid of having a Progressive Black-Latino representing Florida in Congress.

That means we have to fight back harder than ever, but it won’t be easy. I have a lot more ground to make up in fundraising AND on the campaign trail.

So if I’m going to win come Election Day, I need to:

  • Travel across the newly drawn FL-10 district and connect with new voters,
  • Hire more dedicated staff within the district who share the same values as the community I’m running to represent.
  • And raise enough money to launch paid media ads on TV and social media to spread the message of my campaign to new voters.

But if 312 Democrats in your area become a Founding Donor, we’ll close our fundraising gap, launch an unstoppable outreach strategy, and win this race, together.

From day one, this campaign has been about bringing communities together to fight for a better future we all deserve. These new district lines will only make us fight harder, but I’m counting on you to step up and become a Founding Donor. Will you chip in $27 now? >>


Thanks for stepping up,

Maxwell Alejandro Frost
