Hurricane Set to Collide with Top Florida Races

“A hurricane has Tallahassee right in its forecast path, putting it on a collision course with Florida’s two nationally watched races for governor and U.S. Senate and providing Gov. Rick Scott with a chance for a campaign windfall,” Politico reports.

“Just days before Hurricane Michael formed in the Gulf of Mexico, Scott’s Senate campaign coincidentally began running an ad touting his leadership after hurricanes Hermine and Matthew in 2016 and Irma in 2017. This latest storm offers him another high-profile, take-charge moment in the homestretch of one of the nation’s tightest Senate races.”
