“I think for us we’re just focused on making sure we drive turnout to the polls,” Donalds said.
Increasing turnout was the driving message delivered by Donalds, his running mate for lieutenant governor, Bryan Avila, and several other lawmakers, including Congressman Brian Mast and State Senator Erin Grall.
The Donalds campaign starting Tuesday’s leg of its bus tour in Melbourne before stopping in Fort Pierce at Indian River State College’s Eastman Workforce Center.

“We show up, we stand outside, we take pictures with you, sign the bus, we have conversations with the voters. We’ve been consistently doing that for months now on the campaign trail. We’re going to continue to do it every single day. I think the symbolism of the bus tour, it just helps people know that you’re out here working hard for their vote and you want their support,” Donalds said.
Donalds and Avila held a meet and greet in front of the bus, chatting and mingling with supporters.
“We want our kids to achieve the Florida dream for themselves. We want to make sure it’s affordable for our seniors and our working families in our state. That’s what we’ve been laser focused on this entire time. We haven’t gotten off of that,” Donalds said.
Donalds wrapped up Tuesday’s leg of his bus tour with a stop in Miami.
