Just saying, Gwen Graham is also campaigning on a ban on assault weapons. She even has a draft executive order for Day One that she will sign.

Also I would argue that running Graham is EXACTLY like running the same type of centrists who have lost Florida year after year. Her saving grace is that this is the Year of the Woman, and a hopeful anti-Trump blue wave current can carry her. But she is by no means an inspiring candidate who is going to turn out the base...
True, Graham isn't exactly a fan of assault rifles either, but I see her dropping it as a crusade once she realizes she's up against a GOP legislature.

Levine seems to be the "coastal elitist" type who won't make any inroads "North of Jupiter" (as my one friend from WilMa likes to say).


Well, she could be up against a split legislature, due to the chance that the Ds have at taking the senate.

But, anyway, Graham dropping assault riffles during the campaign would be a terrible idea, as it would just spark outrage from her left-leaning base, which she needs to win.
But, for some reason, most posters think she would be the strongest because of her name, which is a terrible assumption to make. When the election season gets going, how many voters will care about her father? Probably not as much who will care about Gwen.

Ive always seen Gwen as a candidate that can either win the race for us, or be a paper tiger, someone who looks promising, but flops. Due to the nature of the primary, she is probably one of the best, but that speaks to how poor the primary is, not to how great she is.
