On the issues

Redistricting: Bradley voted against Gov. Ron DeSantis' mid-decade congressional redistricting map in the Senate Rules Committee. She said the map "rests on a legal theory that the Supreme Court has not even opined on or heard, that the Fair Districts Amendments would be entirely voided. I can't do it. It's just unconstitutional," according to the Florida Phoenix.
