If she wins the Democratic nomination, Sen. Annette Taddeo would be the first Latina to run for Florida governor with the backing of a major party.Wilfredo Lee / AP fileMIAMI — A Democratic state senator from Miami announced is running for governor in Florida, and if she wins the party’s nomination, she would be the first Latina in the state to run for governor representing a major party.
“Frankly, as a mom with a kid in public school, that was just a nonstarter. I was really flabbergasted,” Taddeo told NBC News. Two other Democratic candidates have higher name recognition than Taddeo statewide: Rep. Charlie Crist and Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried. Crist and Fried are“Threatening to remove people from office who are duly elected by the people, taking funds away from our taxpayer dollars for our kids’ education, this is the kind of thing we see Maduro in Venezuela do,” Taddeo said about DeSantis, referring to the Venezuelan leader, Nicolás Maduro.
She said she has successfully been able to push back on Republican attacks, like calling Democrats socialists or communists, by speaking about her own experience.
