Jeb Bush Mailers Hitting Broward Mailboxes

 Broward Republican mailboxes are getting stuffed with pro-Jeb Bush mailers from the Right To Rise USA political committee. The glossy multi-page mailer touts Governor Bush’s foreign policy plans.

A full page photograph of the Oval Office is emblazoned with “When the attacks come here, the person behind this desk will have to protect your family.” The mailer refers to attacks from the militant Islamist group, ISIS. The mailer calls Bush an “experienced leader” with a “plan to fight and defeat ISIS.” Bush’s opponents for the Republican nomination are featured inside the mail piece.

The mailer calls Donald Trump “offensive, impulsive and reckless.” The pro-Bush piece claims Senator Ted Cruz voted to “dramatically weaken” surveillance. The piece uses missed votes to attack Senator Marco Rubio.

“Marco Rubio missed more votes over the last 3 years than ANY other Senator, and even skipped crucial national security hearings and votes.” 

The mailer states Governor Bush has the support of 27 generals and admirals because he “has the experience and knowledge to protect your family.”

The Bush campaign appears to be making a big push for the Broward vote.

As REDBROWARD first reported, Governor Bush will be the featured speaker in March at the Broward Republican Party’s Lincoln Day event. 

 

Savvy Rubio Campaign Invites Broward Grassroots To Big Ticket Event

In a savvy move to attract grassroots support, the Marco Rubio campaign is making it easy for Broward Republicans to attend a high-priced fundraiser in Fort Lauderdale.  The Gold Coast Republican Club brokered a special offer for members of the Broward Republican Party (BREC) to attend a Friday night reception at the 110 Tower in downtown Fort Lauderdale. The event will raise money for Senator Rubio’s Presidential campaign.

For this event, the Rubio campaign is asking for $2,700 per person for the VIP  and $1,000 for the general recption. Thanks to the efforts of the Gold Coast Republican Club, BREC members can attend the general reception by making “whatever contribution you are comfortable with.”

The Club made it clear this special arrangement was not an endorsement of Rubio. The club hopes other candidates will make it easier for rank and file Republicans to meet them.

Note: While the Gold Coast Republican Club and the Republican Party of Broward County does not endorse or take sides in a Republican Primary Election, we do encourage all Republicans to attend as many Republican candidate events as possible. This will allow you to have first-hand access to the candidates and become as informed as possible before you cast your vote. To help with this effort, the Gold Coast Republican Club will periodically send out individual campaign event invites which are in or near Broward County.
