Crist cops more Hispanic support
Gov. Charlie Crist has announced receiving an endorsement in his U.S. Senate campaign from Puerto Rican Gov. Luis Fortuno.
That’s more Hispanic support for Crist against his opponent, former state House Speaker Marco Rubio of Miami, son of a Cuban immigrant family.
Crist has also received endorsements from other prominent Hispanics—Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Alvarez, U.S. Reps. Lincoln and Mario Diaz-Balart and Sen. Mel Martinez.
Ironically, while Crist is piling up Hispanic endorsements, some of Rubio’s strongest endorsers have been southern, white Republicans, including former Arkansa governor and presidential candidate Mike Huckabee and South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint.
