AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
After U.S. Rep. Charlie Crist clinched the Democratic gubernatorial nomination for Florida governor, the Republican Party of Florida aired an ad bashing his support of President Joe Biden.
The 30-second ad, which aired in English and Spanish, tied Crist to Biden on crime and new money for the IRS.
"Charlie Crist thinks Joe Biden is the best president of his lifetime," the Aug. 24 campaign ad said. It went on to claim Crist "supports Biden’s agenda to defund the police," and that he "teamed up with Biden to hire 87,000 new IRS agents to audit the middle class."
The ad makes false and misleading claims.
