UPDATE–Rumor Debunked: Jared Moskowitz Running For State House, No Interest In School Board

Mini-Me?

Jared Moskowitz contacted RED BROWARD to shoot down this rumor. Mr. Moskowitz stated, “nothing could be further from the truth.” He said he has “never wavered” from his decision to run for the Florida State House Of Representatives.”I am running for state rep and that has never changed!”

Even though we heard about this rumor from two good sources, we will take Mr. Moskowitz at his word.

So considered this rumor officially DEBUNKED

Plus, no one in their right mind would pass up Tallahassee for a chance to hang out with Ann Murray.

The original  (Debunked) report is below:

Rumor mill in northwest Broward is working overtime with reports that Parkland commissioner Jared Moskowitz (D-My Daddy is Powerful) will drop his bid for the Florida House of Representatives and pursue the District 4 seat on the Broward County School Board.

Moskowitz has ties to the Broward School District. His father Michael, a powerful Democrat attorney, represents disgraced former BTU President Pat Santeramo.

Jared, take it from us, the accomodations are much nicer in Tallahassee. KC Wright is not a real crystal place.

Only in Broward…

Let's send them both packing.

Casinos Bet Big Money On Broward School Board Candidate Franklin Sands

Yee-Haw!

Just last week, the Awake Broward Democrats crowned Florida House Representative Franklin Sands a “Middle Class Champion”. Well, the casino and gaming interests are betting big on this middle class champion, hoping he will “champion” their interests in Tallahassee. Sure, Sands is running for the Broward County School Board, but this week he is in Tallahassee for the start of the legislative session. The legislature will vote on a destination casino bill that would bring mega-casino resorts to South Florida.

Sands’ School Board campaign finance reports shows money coming in from numerous gaming interests, including the Genting Group. Genting is an Asian company seeking to build a casino in downtown Miami.

In all, Sands raised $33, 391.13 of which, $3,700 came from gaming companies. This comes on top of the big bucks the Florida Democratic Party was sending to a consulting company headquartered in Sands’ Weston home.
