Mary Barzee Flores - Former federal judge
Kristen Rosen Gonzalez - Miami Beach commissioner
Matt Haggman - Former Knight Foundation Director

Mark Anthony Person
David Richardson - State Rep.
Jose Javier Rodriguez - Member of Florida State Senate (SD-37)
There are approximately 712,083 people in this district. 72.7% are Hispanic but almost half are not of Cuban descent. It is increasingly a Democratic District. There are some very good candidates in this district. I could see voting for many of them although I am already committed to JJ Rodriguez.
Why doesn't one of these strong Democrats move and challenge Carlos Curbelo? He is a weak Republican in District 26:
The Cook Political Report, which publishes a Partisan Voting Index, named Ros-Lehtinen third on the list of the 10 Republicans in the most Democratic districts in the nation. Miami U.S. Rep. Carlos Curbelo topped the list. Looks like the Dems will lose on 26 as they don't have a strong candidate there. If they lose 27 too, they are total idiots.

Mary Barzee is a former Dade County Judge and former Federal Public Defender but was not a federal judge, she was nominated, but Marco Rubio did not approve and let it flounder. She was a great judge in Dade criminal court and a really great person but we need Jose Javier in DC
I like Rodriquez too. He's ready for the job.
David Richardson is the only progressive!!
I had the same exact thought about the Curbelo district this morning. Where is the state Democratic Party? They should be all over this.
