On Friday, nearly 175 Orange County Black Caucus members and allies gathered at the Winter Park Community Center for the election-year HobNob and Straw Poll event with Democratic candidates. The event set the stage for the August 20th primary election.
“We want to express our deepest gratitude to our democratic candidates who graced us with their presence and to all of you who came to bolster our text and door-to-door engagement efforts, contributing over $6200 – double our goal! Your presence and support are invaluable to us,” stated President of the Orange County Chapter and Second Vice President of the State Chapter, Timothy Ayers.
