Democratic candidate for governor expresses support for Manatee parents, students at rally

Former state Sen. Nan Rich, so far the only major Democrat running for governor, on Monday took to Twitter to express her support for parents, children and others rallying at Manatee County School District headquarters in support of teachers.

Specifically, Rich re-tweeted one of my tweets from the rally that included a photo of the demonstrators:

Go them! RT @mrmasferrer: Kids make heartfelt pleas of their @manateeschools teachers at administration building twitter.com/MRMasferrer/st…

Rich opened her Twitter account on Monday.
