“The Senate race comes down to one question: who has the independence to put Florida first?”
That’s what U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson says in a new television spot to begin airing tomorrow. The 30-second spot, titled “Closer,” showcases Nelson’s deep roots in the state. “Folks, I’m a fifth-generation Floridian. I’ve always put Florida first – and I always will,” Nelson says.
He also says in the ad that “when President Trump asks for something that’s good for him and bad for Florida, I know what I’ll do: I’ll say ‘no’. And we all know what Rick Scott will do – he’ll say ‘yes’.”
The message is scheduled to start airing in most Florida markets tomorrow, excluding the parts of the Panhandle hardest hit by Hurricane Michael.
Here’s a link to watch “Closer” followed by the script:

The Senate race comes down to one question, who has the independence to put Florida first.
When President Trump asks for something that’s good for him and bad for Florida, I know what I’ll do: I’ll say no.
And we all know what Rick Scott will do, he’ll say yes.
Folks, I’m a fifth-generation Floridian.
I’ve always put Florida first – and I always will. Nelson says.
