WASHINGTON ā Billionaire former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg is donating $500,000 to juice Democratic turnout in Miami-Dade County, a place where the party must bank a massive number of votes if it hopes to win the pivotal swing state of Florida.
The money will be used to register Miami-Dade voters and knock on doors.
In a statement, Bloomberg highlighted the importance of Miami-Dade County.
āAs one of the most diverse counties in Florida, Miami-Dade County is a particularly important county for a Democratic victory in Florida,ā he said.
āIām glad to support the Miami-Dade Democratic Executive Committeeās work to directly reach voters and urge them to cast their ballots."
