Democrats see abortion battle as chance to make gains in Florida
Democrats are seeking to put Republicans in Florida on defense over the issue of abortion.
While winning the Sunshine State will be an uphill climb for Democrats, Vice President Harris’s campaign has increased its presence in Florida amid an effort to legalize the procedure in the state through a ballot initiative that will go before voters in November.
The “Fighting for Reproductive Rights” bus tour launched Tuesday in Palm Beach, former President Trump’s hometown, and will feature Harris surrogates meeting with voters to discuss access to reproductive rights.
Additionally, polls show an increasingly tight race for Florida’s Senate seat, as former Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell (D-Fla.) hammers incumbent Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) on abortion rights.
