Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney continues to take advantage of his early ground game in Florida, announcing endorsements Wednesday from three more Jacksonville politicos.
State Rep. Dick Kravitz, R-Jacksonville, and city councilmen Lake Ray and Art Shad will join Romney's Duval County steering committee. That pushes the number of Florida endorsements and advisors to close to 90 since October.
They'll also join fellow First Coasters John Thrasher, the former House speaker and current powerhouse lobbyist, and Rep. Jennifer Carroll as Romney followers.
"I'm honored by the tremendous support our organization continues to receive in Florida," Romney said in the release. "Representative Kravitz and Councilmen Ray and Shad are all accomplished and respected leaders in Jacksonville. I appreciate their counsel and their commitment to finding innovative solutions to the new generation of challenges America faces."
