The Toby Overdorf Campaign today announced the endorsement of Karen Giorno, Senior Advisor and Florida Chief Strategist for the Donald J. Trump for President 2016 Campaign. Overdorf is running for the District 83 seat in the Florida House of Representatives, currently held by Gayle Harrell, who faces term limits this year.
“Toby Overdorf is the only leader in this race who truly stands with President Trump,” said Giorno. “Despite his opponent’s claims to the contrary, Toby has always been 100 percent on board with the President’s plan to secure our borders and protect our constitutional rights. We can count on Toby to promote new jobs, strengthen our economy, and continue supporting President Trump’s Make-America-Great-Again agenda.”
Giorno has spent three decades as a political consultant and operative working with presidential candidates and campaigns, four American presidents, and the governor of Florida. She was the first female state director for the Trump Campaign. Following her leadership in President Trump’s historic Florida Primary win, she worked to secure delegates in eleven southern states for Delegate Operations and joined the National Team at Trump Tower, where she was in charge of National Voter And Women’s Engagement during the general election.
“I’m proud to have Karen’s support, just like I’m proud to support President Trump,” said Overdorf. “I will never back down from fighting my opponent’s lies with the truth that I have been standing with President Trump since before it was popular. In the year and a half since he took office, his leadership has set a conservative course for the nation, and I intend to continue supporting him wholeheartedly.”
