Florida State Representative Susan Valdes announced her switch from the Democratic to Republican Party on Monday and said it would be “effective immediately.”
In a statement posted to X, Valdes wrote, “I have spent my adult life fighting to give a voice to the people of my West Tampa home. I have done so as a Democrat partly out of habit – I come from a family of Democrats – and partly because I believed the Democrats were the party most concerned with the working families I represent. In the House, I have long known that no one has a monopoly on good ideas. I will not waste my final two years in the Florida Legislature being ignored in a caucus whose leadership expects me to ignore the needs of my community.” more here
Everybody loves to join the winners. She became a Republican and is no longer a Dallas Cowboy fan…..
Willy, exactly. She’s a good politician. Just like the Lawn Jockey Racists Eric Adams. We should have the ability to reject perspective members.
