Former Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum, who lost a bid for Florida governor in November, is launching a voter registration effort with the intent of denying President Trump a second term
"We are going to commit ourselves to registering and engaging 1 million voters between now and the presidential election in 2020," Gillum told a crowd of supporters in Miami Gardens Wednesday.Gillum, currently a CNN political commentator, argued that the"road to the White House runs through Florida.""We can deny Donald Trump a second term right here in Florida," he said. Trump narrowly won Florida's 29 electoral votes in 2016.
" He added,"We are uniquely situated to issue that eviction notice."Gillum also issued a warning to state Republicans to"get their hands off" of Amendment 4, which restores the voting rights to felons not convicted of murder or a sexual offense after completing their sentences, including fines, parole or probation.
