Sunburn â The morning read of whatâs hot in Florida politics â 6.3.21
Good Thursday morning.
A top-of-Sunburn birthday shoutout to my brother from another mother,Â
Reggie Cardozo. Florida and D.C. politics know Reggie as a former Obama White House staffer and a top-flight political strategist, but I know him as a dedicated husband to
Stephanie, father to
Fallon, and
Sutton James, and a trusted friend to many. He’s also my boat buddy, a fellow connoisseur of Bloody Marys and dirty martinis, and just funny as hell.
Happy birthday, brother.

Another poll found Florida voters largely support the Gaming Compact recently signed by Gov.
Ron DeSantis and Seminole Tribe of Florida Chairman
Marcellus Osceola Jr.
The poll, commissioned by the Florida Chamber of Commerce, found 68% of voters approve of the deal, which would give the Seminole Tribe exclusive rights to oversee sports betting in Florida, both on their own properties and through pari-mutuels operating under their supervision. Meanwhile, just 21% disapprove.
Support was strong across party lines, with 75% of Republicans, 66% of NPAs, and 62% of Democrats supporting the proposed compact with the Seminole Tribe.
