Eskamani's campaign has since responded to the ad. "The GOP proves yet again that it is out of touch with Florida voters. While Anna Eskamani's campaign continues to gain momentum and local support, from raising over $300,000 to knocking on over 11,000 doors with an army of volunteers, the best the GOP can do for the people of House District 47 is recruit a fake Republican opponent," said communications director Marisol Samayoa in a statement. "By contrast, Florida House Victory is proud to have nearly 150 real Democrats running for state House in 90 percent of Florida's state House districts. Florida House Victory stands by Anna Eskamani and is proud of the robust grassroots campaign she is running to flip this seat from red to blue."It’s not me chanting. But I appreciate the slow zoom into me being the MC for the women’s march, very spooky!
