Wednesday, January 25, 2006, ORLANDO -- The Orange County Young Democrats, Florida's largest Young Democrats organization, endorsed Scott Randolph as their pick for the District 36 Florida House of Representatives race on Wednesday. The final decision to endorse was made by an overwhelming number of the general members present. The night before, the OCYD Nominations and Endorsement Committee had unanimously recommended endorsing Scott.
This critical endorsement was timed by the OCYDs to preceed endorsements from other groups and organizations, which are expected to be finalized in February and March. Before the vote was taken, Scott was asked to address the group and outline his reasons for running and specific campaign needs. Scott is an environmental attorney for Clean Water Action who outfundraised his incumbent opponent, Sheri McInvale, last quarter. McInvale switched to the Republican party in an effort to avoid a defeat in the September primary, but the OCYD endorsement was already in the works before her defection.
Scott told the Orange County Young Democrats Wednesday night that the group has become a crucial stop for candidates seeking support from young activists in the party. He hopes the endorsement will bring attention to his campaign and attract progressives who had not given the District 36 race much consideration before.
The group has also noted that supporters of Scott Randolph may be especially interested in the OCYD's upcoming Power To The People Awards night on February 21, where Scott will be winning an award from the group.

Thursday, January 26, 2006, ORLANDO -- Following a stunning first quarter campaigning to become District 36's next Florida House representative, Scott Randolph will celebrate the launch of his new web site, www.ElectScott Randolph.com, with supporters and friends at The Peacock Room in Orlando on Thursday, January 26.
His race began against an incumbent of his own party, Sheri McInvale, a representative he felt neither represented Democratic values, nor those of her constituents. But after an outpouring of support for Randolph, he ended 2005 with more campaign dollars in the bank than McInvale. Facing likely defeat in the September 5 primary, McInvale switched to the Republican party, confusing voters and confirming for many her unpredictability.
Scott Randolph has set his sights on a general election that will focus on the issues: how he will work harder in Tallahassee than McInvale to reduce healthcare costs, to keep Floridians employed, to protect Florida's natural environment, and to offer children here the best education possible.
The party will center around his newly-launched web site, a vital tool in reaching out to voters. Unlike the events that characterize his opponent's new party, Randolph's event will be open to all supporters who wish to make a $5 donation.
"The idea is to have as many friends join us as possible, not just those people who can afford to make a $500 donation," says Randolph. "We hope everyone interested in Florida's future will come out and hear great music from two amazing bands and two very talented DJs."
The Peacock Room is located at 1321 N. Mills Avenue (17-92), near the intersection of Virginia Drive. Visitors seeking more information on the event can email or call the campaign staff at (407) 673-3283.

CAPITOL VIEW, Kennedy & Garcia
January 15, 2006 -- Democrats were stung last week when state Rep. Sheri McInvale of Orlando, who has long quarreled with a number of party leaders and activists, decided to abandon ship and become a Republican.
But Democratic activists have taken some solace in the fact that one of the party faithful who had decided to challenge McInvale in 2006 -- even before she jumped to the GOP -- is off to a surprising start.
Scott Randolph, an attorney and environmental activist, raised $20,000 during his first quarter of fundraising, according to campaign-finance records filed last week. That's almost exactly as much as McInvale raised during the same period, despite the advantage of incumbency.
McInvale's account may shrink a little bit, too. The day she switched parties, she pledged to send a letter to all of her contributors offering them a refund. Randolph did his part to help, sending those same contributors a letter of his own urging them to take her up on the offer.
But McInvale says she's not worried. After all, she now has access to the much deeper pockets of the GOP -- though she insists Republican leaders did not promise her campaign cash before she switched. She pointed out that the party didn't ask her campaign consultant for a budget until after she announced her decision.
"I have full confidence that the Republican Party, of which I am now a member, will be right here with me all the way," McInvale said.
Of course, Randolph says McInvale's switch has been a boon for his fundraising, too. Plenty of Democrats who didn't like McInvale's mixed voting record -- but were reluctant to go after one of their party's few incumbents in Tallahassee -- aren't hesitating anymore, he said.
"We've definitely been on the phone a lot in the last three or four days," Randolph said.

Tuesday, January 10, 2006, TALLAHASSEE -- After only one quarter of fundraising, Democrat Scott Randolph has more cash on hand than his opponent, Sheri McInvale. As the result of falling behind in voter support, McInvale announced a jump to the Republican Party today, in a desperate attempt to keep her seat.
Democratic opponent Scott Randolph is in Tallahassee on Tuesday to meet with lawmakers, advocating for stronger laws to protect public heath. Randolph was not surprised by the news, citing the incumbent's Republican voting record and history of threats to switch parties.
"Because Sheri McInvale misled voters for four years, I think it became clear to her that she no longer had support among voters in District 36," said Randolph. "We have raised more than $20,000 in just 13 weeks from real people -- not PAC's or big corporations. People have clearly decided that they want a real leader in office."
Randolph knows it is time for a change and that he can win on the issues -- no matter which party designation she claims. Ending 2005 with a campaign chest of $20,132.92, nearly $2,000 more than McInvale, Randolph has gained stronger support from voters, contributors and volunteers than McInvale had expected.
Voters have already recognized McInvale's consistent record of siding with House Republicans and Governor Jeb Bush. She has also voted against minimum wage protections, against affordable housing funds, and against protecting consumers from a 20% phone bill increase. In 2003 and 2004, she also voted for government intrusion in the Terry Schiavo case.
"Trust goes both ways," said Randolph. "McInvale has violated voters' trust since the first day she took office. Her votes to intervene in the Terri Schiavo case, privatize Medicaid, and increase phone rates by 20% run against the interests of voters in District 36."
Randolph, an Orlando non-profit, environmental attorney, is running a campaign based on reaching out to voters one-on-one. He believes that Floridians deserve affordable healthcare, quality education, and a representative in the House who reflects their values.
"We had the courage to stand up and question McInvale's position on the issues," said Randolph. "Instead of trying to defend her record on the issues, she ran to big, corporate special interests to protect her."
