Former Democratic Gov. Buddy MacKay called on Democrats to throw their support behind former state Sen. Nan Rich, who is currently running as a Democrat in the Florida gubernatorial campaign.

On Wednesday, MacKay reinforced his support of Rich, saying she has what it takes to take on Gov. Rick Scott. MacKay has been a fervent supporter of Rich since February but reiterated the need to get behind the South Florida Democrat.

In an email to supporters, MacKay praised Rich and asked Democrats to donate to Rich's campaign, writing:

"As the last Democrat to serve as governor of Florida, I really do know how important it is to have someone who shares our values leading our state again.

"As a state legislator and first woman elected leader of the SenateDemocrats, Nan has always stood for the principles that define the essence of the Democratic Party fairness and equality for all."
