The week after: Democratic Party strategist Franco Ripple discusses Charlie Crist’s & Greenlight Pinellas losses

Share

All Florida Democrats had a tough night on Election Night, but Franco Ripple’s was particularly rotten. The Democratic Party strategist worked on the media campaigns of both Charlie Crist and Greenlight Pinellas, respectively, both of whom lost last week. Crist’s loss was a relatively narrow one-point decision against GOP incumbent Rick Scott. While Greenlight got stomped, losing by an even wider margin than the Moving Hillsborough Forward vote in 2010. Franco talked to listeners about both decisions on this week’s show.
