On Tuesday Broward voters received text messages implying a Parkland parents group supported a Republican candidate for the Broward School Board District 6 seat. The text message read, “Concerned Citizens, Endorse Brenda Farm!” First, the candidate is Brenda Fam, a Davie attorney. Her name is NOT Brenda Farm.

Second, note the use of the comma.

Concerned Citizens of Broward County is a prominent Facebook group with more than 5,400 members. Formed in the aftermath of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas tragedy, the group seeks to reform a myriad of issues within Broward Schools. Concerned Citizens of Broward County interviewed candidates and posted its endorsements last month.

The group did not endorse Fam. They endorsed her opponent, Steven Julian of Plantation.

This text message is the latest amateurish tactics intended to fool Broward voters.

Broward deserves better candidates.

And candidates deserve better campaign staffers and vendors.
