Democratic (click here) gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum has landed the endorsement of the Miami Herald.
“The tenacity, political smarts and commitment to public service that propelled this Tallahassee mayor to victory from the bottom of the pack of better-known candidates in August’s Democratic primary speak volumes,” writes the editorial board.
“We think that each quality will serve him well as he likely confronts and negotiates with a Republican-dominated Legislature.”...
I remember when he took the Democratic nomination and I thought, "Who is Andrew Gillum?" I read about his time in the Mayor's seat in Tallahassee and I immediately liked him. He is very interested in the quality of life of the people. That is governance. The quality of life of the people improved under his leadership and I still like him a lot today. The Democratic Party is lucky to have a man interested in governance. He is a great leader. He sets a standard Florida needs and the country for that matter.
Go, Andrew Gillum, Go!
