Sheriffpalooza update: AG hopeful Aronberg snags 13th sheriff endorsement

by George Bennett | February 24th, 2010

Sheriff Morris Young of Gadsden County announced today he’s backing state Sen. Dave Aronberg, D-Greenacres, in the Democratic primary for attorney general.

Young is the 13th Florida sheriff to endorse Aronberg, who has sought to boost his law enforcement cred against primary rival Dan Gelber, a state Senator from Miami Beach who is a former federal prosecutor.

Aronberg’s sheriff endorsements include Palm Beach County’s Ric Bradshaw and St. Lucie County’s Ken Mascara and the sheriffs of Calhoun, Jackson, Citrus, Hamilton, Wakulla, Alachua, Glades, Hendry, Baker and Bradford counties.

    Would be nice if this post listed the political parties to which the sheriffs belonged to see if this is anything more than Democrats endorsing Democrats.

    Hey Mike,
    If you read the post, you will see that there are TWO (2) Democrats trying to win the Democratic Primary for Attorney General. In a primary, it is important to win over people, either regular citizens or elected officials, who are members of your party. Unless you are in 5th grade, it sounds like you need a re-up on civics. Congrats to state Sen. Dave Aronberg, who now has received 13 endorsements from the 13 Democratic Sheriff’s who have decided to make an endorsement. Keep up the good work, Dave.
