It’s what I expect Democrats to do, to reach out and help. Which is why I was surprised when I wrote this last week, to learn that there are Democrats in office who aren’t reaching out to help others.
Kathy Lewis is the candidate I wrote about who wasn’t getting any help from the party. Like me, she is the daughter of a firefighter. Unlike me, she is a graduate of Johns Hopkins University, an author, motivational speaker, and an advocate for disability rights.
Kathy is exactly the kind of Senator Florida needs so I was thrilled when endorsements started to roll in. Our own Angie Nixon endorsed her!

She’s also been endorsed by: Alex Sink, Former Chief Financial Officer for the State of Florida; Former Candidate for Governor of Florida.

Kathy Lewis says:
I can lift Biden and help flip the state senate. I don’t think about winning or losing, I think about telling the story and carving the way in the forest. I’m trying to over-perform so Biden can get there.
Let’s step up and help her with that!
