Candidate Nate Douglas Aims for a Positive Change in Florida House

Orlando’s own Nate Douglas, a 23-year-old gay candidate for the Florida House, is making waves as he campaigns for change in the upcoming election. Currently pursuing a graduate degree in data science, Douglas is using his platform to address climate change and energize young voters. He believes the numbers he’s seeing indicate a promising opportunity for Democrats in November. Born in Celebration, Florida—a town envisioned by Walt Disney—Douglas has already raised over $238,000 for his campaign, nearly double of what his Republican opponent has collected. Douglas’ passion for climate advocacy began in high school when he joined the Sunrise Movement. He urges immediate action, stating that without it, the U.S. will face deeper economic and energy crises. As he gears up to challenge Republican incumbent Susan Placentia, Douglas also aims to focus on healthcare and education in the state. He emphasizes that the upcoming election is crucial for addressing the pressing challenges facing Florida and its residents. #Queer Up Politics
