Miami-Dade:
STATE REPRESENTATIVE BARBARA WATSON PROTECT
Ruths List helped Barbara Watsons special election to the Florida
House in March 2011. This is a minority-majority district, so the
winner of the primary will win the general election. In 2012, the
Florida Chamber of Commerce and other special interest groups
fronted a Republican in Democratic clothing against Barbara. A
combination of their money and low primary turnout meant this election was a
squeaker: Barbara won by just 13 votes! This round, she has four opponents filed
against her. Barbara Watson is one of our most progressive voters in the State
House. In the past session, shes introduced a bill to strengthen the Fair Housing Act
and make it truly fair for all Floridians. We all need Barbara to win on August 26, 2014.

Florida. Her opponent, incumbent Linda Bell, regularly puts corporate special interests

civic leaders in the county characteristics that are helping her raise the funds necessary

finance plans and will rally our extensive member network to help her win.

abortion state representatives plus hes regularly in the news for improprieties. Daisy
