Former Democratic Florida Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell is taking a new jab at Sen. Rick Scott with a new ad that again highlights her Hispanic roots and as new polling shows her reducing her opponent's advantage in the race for one of the two state's Senate seats.
Mucarsel-Powell is taking the case to voters in Spanish, a state where the Hispanic voter population is rapidly growing, currently holding around 3.5 million voters. In the newly shared ad, titled "The Important Things," Mucarsel-Powell recounts how her mother's immigration story allowed them to experience the American Dream, a rhetoric that tends to fare well with Latinos.
