Orlando Sentinel Endorsement

District 10, Democrat: Maxwell Frost

There’s only one word to describe the overall vibe around Central
Florida’s congressional District 10 race, particularly the Democratic
primary. And that word is crazy.

The contest to fill Val Demings’ spot in the U.S. House is a Category
Three mess of a race, crowded with old and new faces and laced with
pettiness and lust for lost power.

But all that falls away at the calm center of the storm, where a
pantheon of local, state and federal Democrats, labor unions,
environmental groups and community agencies have gathered around one
candidate.

Maxwell Frost is only 25 years old and has never held public office
before. But he has held many megaphones, and used them to demand the
answers his generation is due. Frost has made himself impossible to
ignore, for all the right reasons. Hailed as the first progressive
candidate to step forward from Generation Z, he has won the backing of
some of this nation’s most revered liberal leaders, including Sen.
Elizabeth Warren and the Rev. Jesse Jackson. At the same time, he’s been
winning over the weary, wary cynics fighting to defend the core of the
Democratic Party against an onslaught of rage-fueled right-wing
animosity.

Frost and others like him inspire belief in a future where young people
are ready to take up the mantle of defending civil rights and women’s
right to bodily autonomy. Ready to insist on communities safe from gun
violence and poverty. Ready to demand that this nation reverse its
accelerating tumble into devastating global climate change.

We need young leaders like this for the hope that they bring. But Frost
offers more than hope: He’s done the work. He displays a solid grasp of
the facts defining the challenges he plans to confront, and while his
plans sometimes reach too far -- such as a nationwide cap of 3% for rent
increases -- he offers more than rhetoric.

In the 10-person field, he’s most notably bookcased between two relics
of Florida’s political past: former Rep. Corrine Brown, whose
decades-long political career was derailed by a felony fraud conviction,
and former Rep. Alan Grayson, whose bluster and braggadocio contrasts
poorly to Frost’s calm insistence on justice. There are other, far
better choices. State Sen. Randolph Bracy has served Central Florida
thoughtfully and well, and would probably be our pick if Frost weren’t
in the race. Orlando civil-rights attorney Natalie Jackson is a solid
newcomer.

But this is Frost’s time, and he’s ready to stand in the vanguard of his
generation.
