Show Notes
Former Florida Governor Charlie Crist is amassing a substantial war chest for a potential run at St. Petersburg mayor, with his St. Pete Shines committee raising nearly $1.2 million, including $473,000 in the first quarter. Hes set to challenge incumbent Democrat Ken Welch, despite their past endorsements. Crist recently launched an ad highlighting his baseball roots, and while his mothers passing delayed his plans, he hints at filing soon. His committee boasts a bipartisan mix of donors, with $50,000 from Seminole Gaming and local heavyweights. With $1.1 million in the bank and five other contenders, Crists strong fundraising positions him well in St. Petes heated political landscape.
