HIALEAH, Fla. — Standing in front of the crowd in the dimly lit Hialeah Middle Community School library, Charlie Crist, the Democratic nominee for governor, enthusiastically announced his running mate.
“She’s caring, loving, empathetic, passionate ... that’s what we don’t have in the governor’s office right now,” he said. “You know her, you love her, I love her. Meet the next lieutenant governor of Florida, Karla Hernandez-Mats.”
The crowd, comprised of educators, some Miami-Dade County School Board members and local politicians, cheered as Carlos Vives’ Song “Ahi llego yo” played.
