FL-20: Black candidates consider uniting behind one candidate against Wasserman Schultz. Deadline looming.

The four Black candidates running in the Democratic primary in Broward’s 20th Congressional District are still actively working on a deal in which all-but-one would drop out of the race, setting up a one-on-one contest with Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

The candidates met for four hours in Pompano Beach on Monday to discuss their options, and on Tuesday were still considering what they would do, two of the candidates and another participant in the meeting said.

“It was a very, very good meeting, a very, very healthy discussion. I think the candidates that are running are looking to consolidate and identify the one person that they’re all going to get behind,” said state Sen. Rosalind Osgood, a Fort Lauderdale Democrat who was present.

“I think it will happen soon,” Osgood said.
