Once a Democrat, Bob Martinez says Party Swapping Won’t Hurt Crist…But
July 22nd, 2014 by Mike Vasilinda
New mailers hitting Democrats mail boxes this week chastise former Governor Charlie Crist for positions he took as a Republican which he has now modified as he runs as a Democrat. Former Governor Bob Martinez was a Democrat for years and became a Republican less than a year before seeking and winning the state’s top job. Martinez was in Tallahassee today where he was asked by reporters if he thought the Crist party change matters to voters. “The bigger issue for Charlie will be changing positions. I think the average citizen doesn’t keep score of how you were registered to vote. They keep score on what you stand for” says the former Governor.
The mailers are from a third party group widely believed to be funded by large sugar interests. Crist faces little know former State Senator Nan Rich in the August primary.
