RPOF Chairman Blaise Ingoglia on the Florida Supreme Court's Justice Vacancies Ruling

Republican Party of Florida Chairman Blaise Ingoglia issued the following statement Monday afternoon:

"The statkes for November’s election just got higher. The Florida Supreme Court has ruled the next governor of Florida will be responsible for filling three vacancies on the Florida Supreme Court.

"With a 4-3 majority currently, the liberals have owned the Florida Supreme Court for decades. Now, THREE of the liberal Justices are facing mandatory retirement and either Ron DeSantis or Andrew Gillum will replace them.

"The choice for this election is clearer than ever. Andrew Gillum would appoint radical, activist justices who would legislate from the bench and work to eliminate school choice, erode pro-life principles and impose big-government ideology on our state. Ron DeSantis is an attorney, Iraq veteran and former Navy JAG officer who knows the importance of appointing strong constitutionalists to the bench.

"Over the past eight years, our state has been lucky to have a strong leader like Governor Rick Scott who has has fought against radical judicial activism. We must continue the fight.

"Here's how you can help in two easy steps:

• "Step 1: Forward this email to everyone you know.
• "Step 2: Tell everyone you know to get out and vote!"
