Precinct-level Politics

I just received my democratic primary mail in ballot and I have questions.
Who are these people?
By shear weight, Val Demings for US Senator. has sent me 500 emails asking for money. No one else on the ballot has. She is a former Orlando Chief of Police and really doesn't say what her position on abortion, gay rights, marriage rights, birth control, or voting rights are or else I just missed it . She makes it clear she really doesn't like Marco Rubio, DeSantis, and Scott though. That's enough for me to vote for her in the general. I don't know who Richard De La Fuentes, Brian Rush, or William Sanchez are, though they are Democrats.

(17,690 posts)for the illustrious office of Florida Commissioner of Agriculture. That is the only political office shes held. If Florida wouldnt back Gwen Graham they wont back her. Im not a huge fan of Christ but IMHO hes got a much better chance of beating DeSatan than Fried.
