Marco Rubio
Miami, FL – Recognizing the importance of the youth vote, the Marco Rubio for U.S. Senate campaign today launched its college campus organizational drive to recruit college students for on-campus campaigning, summer volunteering and voter outreach efforts. As part of this launch, the campaign announced its 31 Florida college coordinators, who will focus on recruiting supporters, volunteers and interns for the campaign during the final weeks of the spring semester.
The campaign also announced that Rubio will hold his first major statewide college rally on Wednesday, April 14 at the University of Florida in Gainesville. The event will be broadcast via streaming video to Marco Rubio for U.S. Senate college groups across the state.
“College students are excited about Marco Rubio’s candidacy and drawn to his message of ensuring their generation inherits a secure and prosperous America,” said Rubio for Senate spokesman Alex Burgos. “Through our campus recruiting drive, college students will play a key role in making sure that, by the time they return for the fall semester, Marco will be the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate and heading to victory in November.”
“Having a strong presence on Florida’s college campuses is an essential part of communicating Marco’s message and achieving our goals,” Burgos added. “Marco and his campaign are honored to have students across the state stand with him and stand for the conservative principles that will get America back on a limited government, free market track.”
