Former President Obama has endorsed the Democratic candidates in Florida's Senate and gubernatorial races less than two weeks before the midterm elections, according to a campaign report from The Hill.
The Hill reported that Democratic gubernatorial nominee David Jolly and Democratic Senate candidate Angie Nixon each shared videos of Obama showing support for their campaigns on Saturday morning. The outlet said both shared the videos on X, a social platform. The Hill's headline describes the endorsements as a last-minute campaign boost for the two candidates.
The Hill's summary of the report includes the phrase "Real change starts when," but the excerpt ends before the rest of that message appears. The summary does not say which video contained those words or confirm that Obama is the speaker, so the full wording of the message cannot be verified from the material available for this story.
The Hill credited the report to Suryatapa Chakraborty. Its summary gives no further detail about the candidates' campaign plans, their standing in the races, or any events beyond the shared videos.
According to The Hill, the summary identifies Jolly as the party's gubernatorial nominee and Nixon as its Senate candidate, though it does not say whether the endorsements were coordinated with either campaign. Florida's races for Senate and governor are part of the midterm elections, which the summary places less than two weeks away.
The Hill's summary does not describe the candidates' opponents, polling, or the timing of any further campaign appearances, and no other outlet's report was available for comparison in this story.
