Unless a caravan of black Chevy Suburbans is spotted this week arriving at Tallahassee’s City Hall, that town’s mostly ceremonial mayor, Andrew Gillum, will have progressed through the entire Democratic primary for Florida governor.

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum is unloading the entire progressive Democrats’ playbook into a new 30-second ad that blows through issues from Medicare for all to seeking impeachment of President Donald Trump, as the Tallahassee Mayor seeks a stretch-run kick toward the primary.

Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum was asked questions in Thursday night’s Democratic gubernatorial candidate town hall that no other candidate was asked. He was asked, in a question about being endorsed by Sen. Bernie Sanders, whether he considered himself a Democratic socialist. And he was asked whether he was a socialist or capitalist. And he was also asked whether […]

Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum is facing increasingly long odds in his bid for the Democratic nomination for governor. Despite the backing of Tom Steyer and George Soros, Gillum is outspent on the airwaves, and can only watch as poll after poll shows undecideds breaking to Gwen Graham. It was 18 months ago in Jacksonville that Gillum said his race was […]
