GOP dark money group pretends to be Democrats to attack Andrew Gillum

By Oliver Willis - October 18, 2018

A Republican dark money group has been misleading voters and using Facebook to smear Florida gubernatorial nominee Andrew Gillum.

A Republican dark money operation is masquerading as a group of Democrats and is trying to smear Andrew Gillum, the Democratic nominee for governor in Florida.

“Florida Strong” is the PAC in question, fueled with thousands of dollars from a team of right-wing donors.

Money has come in to the political committee from the Florida Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee, a group called “Sunshine State Conservatives,” and other PACs like the Responsible Leadership Committee and a PAC supporting Trump called the Freedom First Committee. Florida Strong also received $100,000 from former GOP state senator and conservative real estate developer Patrick K. Neal.

The name of the group is a exactly the same as a previously existing advocacy group, also called Florida Strong, that backed Democratic candidates in the past.
