ORLANDO, Fla. (June 8, 2020) – State Representative HD 48 candidate Supervisor Daisy Morales has qualified for the August 18th primary election ballot, according to the Florida Division of Elections.
While Morales was the only elected official candidate to enter the race just three weeks ago, she was the first candidate to meet Florida’s requirements to earn a spot on the ballot.
“Our campaign is humbled by the outpouring of support from across Orange County, specially in House District 48. The hard work of my family, friends, and our amazing team of volunteers has enabled me to qualify for the primary election ballot to compete for the Democratic nomination, Supervisor Daisy Morales. “I’m the only candidate in this race with a proven track record of defeating my opponents to win back-to-back countywide elections. In 2018, over 256,000 voters or 64% of the total votes trust me to be their elected leader for a second four-year term.
I currently represent the residents of House District 48 at the county level, as their elected Supervisor on the Orange County Soil & Water Conservation District Board of Supervisors. They know me and know them. I look forward to representing them in Tallahassee as the next State Representative.
My campaign earned endorsements from former Democratic Deputy Whip and State Representative John Cortes , City of Ocoee Commissioner George Oliver, III and Music Artist Lillie Nicole McCloud.
