Hours after a statewide machine recount got underway to determine who Florida’s next governor and U.S. senator will be, all four candidates in contention are speaking out about the often acrimonious process.
The Democratic gubernatorial contender, Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum, spoke at an event in Fort Lauderdale that began at 5 p.m. on Sunday.
The event, held at New Mount Olive Baptist Church, aimed to raise funds for the Florida Action Fund.
Speaking to a large crowd, Gillum addressed the recount and why he feels it’s necessary.
