Florida Governor Rick Scott has his amigos out stumping for him in the last weeks before Floridians cast their votes to decide who will be the state’s next governor.
In a new Spanish-language ad put out by the Republican Party of Florida, former Miami Mayor Maurice Ferre (D) and former Governor of Puerto Rico Luis Fortunio (R) tout Scott’s jobs creating prowess, as well as his work on improving the transportation and education systems in Florida.CHYRON TRANSLATED: Maurice Ferré, Mayor of Miami, 1973-1985, Luis Fortuño, Governor of Puerto Rico, 2009-2013
MAURICE FERRÉ TRANSLATED: He’s a Republican.
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
LUIS FORTUÑO TRANSLATED: And he’s a Democrat.
MAURICE FERRÉ TRANSLATED: Agreeing on anything isn’t easy..
LUIS FORTUÑO TRANSLATED: But here’s why we agree that Governor Rick Scott deserves your vote.MAURICE FERRÉ TRANSLATED: Scott’s working on improving our state’s transportation and that creates jobs.
CHYRON TRANSLATED: 600,000 Jobs Created
LUIS FORTUÑO TRANSLATED: On education, Scott secured historic funding, pay raises for teachers and lowered tuition that Charlie Crist increased.
CHYRON TRANSLATED: Education, $20 Billion In Historical Funding
MAURICE FERRÉ TRANSLATED: There you have it. If you’re a Democrat…LUIS FORTUÑO TRANSLATED: … a Republican …
MAURICE FERRÉ TRANSLATED: … or an independent, with Rick Scott …
LUIS FORTUÑO TRANSLATED: … let’s keep working.
Another one of Scott’s politico amigos, Senator Marco Rubio, has also been helping his re-election efforts.Rubio recently ripped into Crist’s “failed leadership” as the governor of Florida, teeing it up for the Republican Governor’s Association (RGA) to capitalizing on the smackdown by pushing out an ad of Rubio’s post debate remarks.
Rubio is also currently holding rallies with Rick Scott.
Florida simply can’t afford to put an unreliable political opportunist like @CharlieCrist in the governor’s office: http://t.co/o5R42Weghn
