The pitch is that Lopez-Cantera is the “best candidate to fill Marco Rubio‘s seat.”

The invite cites him being endorsed by half the Legislature, “over 200 grassroots leaders,” the Lieutenant Governor, and three Miami area Congress members: Carlos CurbeloIleana Ros-Lethinen, and Mario Diaz-Balart.

As well, the invite touts Lopez-Cantera’s statewide fundraising network, his strength with Hispanic voters, the NRA, and the Florida Chamber of Commerce.

He’s the overwhelming choice of Hispanics in a poll cited, and has 100 percent ratings with the Chamber and the National Rifle Association.
