RPOF Chairman Lenny Curry said it did not happen: “I don’t see any evidence of Republican Party of Florida employees saying those kind of things,” Curry said.

Mike Fernandez doesn’t want to talk to the camera: “Uh….” 

But he told WPLG the truth: “The Scott campaign insists no staff member mimicked a Mexican accent or showed any sort of disrespect to Hispanics. Mike Fernandez says he still believes that did happen.”
