The Florida Democratic Party and Miami-Dade Democratic Party announced today the official opening of the new office in Little Havana. Democrats believe headquartering the party’s operations in Little Havana signals its commitment to building on the 2012 gains with South Florida’s Hispanic voters.
“In 2012, we increased our margin of victory in Miami-Dade by 70,000 votes,” said Miami-Dade Democratic Party Chair Annette Taddeo-Goldstein. “Now we are building on that momentum by continuing the OFA ground game in order to defeat Rick Scott and take back Tallahassee.”
“We have an aggressive effort to win South Florida by similar margins as 2012 and having the Florida Democratic Party open an office for the first time in Miami-Dade shows our commitment to growing our opportunities in a key region of the state,” said Florida Democratic Party Chairwoman Allison Tant. “We are excited to partner with Chair Taddeo-Goldstein and the Miami-Dade Democratic Party as we build a campaign operation that will defeat Rick Scott and secure victories for Democrats up and down the ballot.”
