Story summary

As of 2026-10-23, Angie Nixon, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Florida, argues that some donors within her party are hesitant to support her campaign due to assumptions about racism in the South. In a Politico interview, Nixon stated, "They think that the state is racist, and they’re just hesitant to like donate because of it." This reluctance from potential donors could be impacting Nixon's ability to gain traction against Republican opponents. Nixon contends that Democrats often undervalue Florida’s political potential, thereby missing opportunities for investment in statewide campaigns.
