As Florida Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam opens a campaign office in Winter Park, Florida, Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi took the time to call the gubernatorial candidate “like family to me” by endorsing him on the campaign trail.
She explained her endorsement by saying that “Ethics, intelligence, and humility I think are so important for these jobs. And Adam Putnam epitomizes that here in the state of Florida. I know him personally. He’s like family to me. I know his wife, his kids. I know his heart. He’s a great human being. He cares about the state of Florida. He knows Florida inside and out and he will do everything he can to protect Floridians and take care of our great state.”
Speaking to supporters that attended the opening of his new campaign office, Putnam commented that “Here’s why we’re going to win. We’re going to win because we have the strongest grassroots group of volunteers. We’re going to win because we have a message that resonates across the state. We’re going to win because I’m the candidate who knows Florida best.”
Putnam also added that “You can’t solve problems from a television studio in Washington” in reference to DeSantis’ frequent Fox News appearances. And, “You can’t solve our problems with bumper sticker slogans. You have to have solutions. I’m the candidate running for governor who has specific plans, a real agenda, and real-world experience in business and public life.”
