					<description><![CDATA[Republican consultant Anthony Pedicini is the latest target of a negative mailer in the vitriolic House District 58 primary. Pedicini serves as a campaign consultant for Lawrence McClure, the 30-year-old Dover businessman vying to take over the seat previously held by Dan Raulerson, who resigned in August. He&#8217;s running against Plant City businesswoman and civic activist Yvonne Fry. Over the past few weeks, the HD 58 race has become particularly nasty. The latest mailer features a puppet with the tagline, &#8220;Who&#8217;s Pulling Lawrence&#8230;]]></description>

Marco Rubio. “James is a tenacious worker and someone the voters of Sarasota County can trust to deliver and produce results,” Rubio said. “He will put Sarasota’s interests above all and will never stop fighting to keep our economy strong, our infrastructure from crumbling, and our children in&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sarasota County Sheriff Tom Knight is backing James Buchanan in the special election for House District 72, which was vacated by Alex Miller on Sept. 1. “I know James will give law enforcement the support we need to keep our community safe.  He stands with us, so I will stand with him,” Knight said in press release. Knight joins other area Republicans, including future Senate President Bill Galvano and state Rep. Jim Boyd, in endorsing Buchanan, who is the son&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Bill Galvano, the Bradenton Republican set to be the next Senate President, is expected to be officially designated on Oct. 24. Senate Republican Leader Wilton Simpson, who&#8217;s in line to be President after Galvano, made the announcement Monday. Galvano will succeed Joe Negron, a Stuart Republican, as head of the chamber for 2018-20. The designation will make Galvano, an attorney first elected in 2012, head of the 40-member Senate&#8217;s majority of 25 Republicans, meaning for now he&#8217;s a shoo-in to be&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Legislature&#8217;s chief economist has told lawmakers that next year&#8217;s relatively tiny budget surplus will be erased because of costs from Hurricane Irma. Amy Baker, director of the Office of Economic and Demographic Research, presented a working version of the state&#8217;s long-range financial outlook to the Joint Legislative Budget Commission on Friday. She explained that extra costs to the state from last year&#8217;s hurricanes, Hermine and Matthew, cost $76.2 million, meaning a projected $52 million surplus for fiscal year 2018-19 is &#8220;gone.&#8221; Not&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Republicans in the Florida Senate are moving ahead again with an ambitious proposal to boost financial aid for college students. Sen. Bill Galvano filed a bill (SB 4) Wednesday that would require the state to permanently cover 100 or 75 percent of all tuition costs for top high school students who attend a Florida university or college. If it became law it would help about 94,000 students. Legislators scaled back the amount paid by Bright Futures scholarships during the height&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[When the history of the 2025-26 Legislative Sessions is written — undoubtedly Tallahassee Democrat reporter Bill Cottrell will be on his sixth retirement by then — what transpired July 25, 2017, may play a definitive role. Republican Jose Felix Diaz and Democrat Annette Taddeo will meet in a special election to replace Frank Artiles, who resigned after using a racial slur and vulgar language in a conversation with two African-American colleagues. Unofficial online results show Diaz took 58 percent of the&#8230;]]></description>
