Conservatives Cheer Over Who Democrats Just Elected To Be The Next Party Chair In Florida: ‘Hell Yeah’
Florida Democrats elect former Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried After being swept out across the board in historic fashion in last year’s midterm election, they elected to become the next state party chair.
Fried, who was a failed candidate for gubernatorial office and could not win her primary race, stated that she was elected to the position. “You better believe we are going to take it to Ron DeSantis every damn day.”
DeSantis Crushed He exceeded all expectations, winning the governorship by more that 1.5 million votes with a margin of 19.4 percentage points over Democrat Charlie Crist.
DeSantis won 62 out of Florida’s total 67 counties. This includes 59 counties that were double-digital. DeSantis won Miami-Dade County by 11 points, which is the largest county in Florida and a stronghold for Democrats. He won Palm Beach County by three points. It is the third largest county and another Democrat stronghold in the state.
The 44-year-old Republican governor won the election by winning down ballot. His opponents were also defeated. The historic election result is why Republicans now control both the U.S. House of Representatives as well as the Florida state House of Representatives.
“The Florida Democratic Party congratulates @NikkiFried on being elected to lead our party as the new Chair,” Florida Democrats shared their thoughts on Twitter. “We look forward to working together to elect Democrats up and down the ballot to deliver for Floridians.”
Christina Pushaw, top DeSantis aide, responded to the tweet by providing a map that showed the dominance of Republicans in the state. “Aww congrats Nikki!” Pushaw wrote.

Florida Republican Party Chairman Christian Ziegler tweeted, “At this point, I may need to discuss with our staff the need to list all activity conducted by the @FlaDems as an in-kind to the @FloridaGOP.”
The popular conservative Twitter account AG responded, “I’ve noticed this trend where state parties that are failing and focused on only attracting a dwindling base have a tendency to double down instead of looking to adjust. Republicans are doing it in AZ, MI etc and now you see FL Dems following suit.”

“Got her doors absolutely blown off in a primary by a guy who got his doors absolutely blown off in a general,” said former Republican Governors Association Communications Director Jesse Hunt in reference to Fried losing her primary race to Crist. “But sure, I love this for FL Dems.”
Now they’re guaranteed to never win anything in Florida again. https://t.co/oCIFDgdqaO pic.twitter.com/SBgu2GnYgo
