The number of Black House Republican tripled this year — to three.
In any analysis of diversity in politics, framing is to be expected. But numbers are numbers, and here's how the 2023 Florida Legislature looks, relative to Florida's diverse population:
Among races, two-thirds of the House are white-only, while 18.3% are Black. The Senate is 70% white, 17.5% Black. The 2020 Census reports that 52% of Floridians are non-Hispanic white. "This conservative leadership resulted in historic gains in Florida and across the country among Hispanics, Blacks, and women choosing to run for office as Republicans — and winning," Renner said."Floridians elected the most diverse and representative group of Republicans ever to lead the Florida House, and that is reflected in the makeup of committee and subcommittee leadership that will shape the future of Florida for years to come."Rep.
“While corporate media obsesses over identity politics, they have largely ignored women and minority communities that reject the liberal media and political doctrine of the Left," Renner said."We have recruited strong leaders who happen to be from all walks of life, not because of their race or gender."
The message she got from the Republican Party was this:"We need both men and women. We need diverse people. We need people who represent the community" Traditionally, women have lagged men for several reasons, said Olyvia Christley, an assistant professor at Florida Atlantic University who teaches gender politics, political psychology and American politics. The democratic electoral system in the United States requires individual ambition, which studies have shown, is a quality more likely to be possessed by men, she said.
Christley argues women are less confident and more likely to react negatively to modern campaigning because of the way they are, as girls, socialized to think of themselves and their capacities versus boys.
