Donald Trump to campaign in Sarasota
Donald Trump, the frontrunner for the Republican nomination for president, will campaign in Sarasota on Saturday, according to Trump state chairman Joe Gruters. "This is his state headquarters," Gruters said of Sarasota. "This shows the importance of Sarasota and Southwest Florida in this election. He has won Statesman of the Year twice here." Gruters, also chairman of the Republican Party of Sarasota and vice chairman for the Republican Party of Florida, said the March 15 presidential primary in Florida may be the election where Trump sews up the party nomination. "This is going to be the knockout blow that takes out all the other candiates, especially the two Florida candidates that normally would expect to do well here." Gruters referred to former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio, who have both trailed Trump in the polls for months while battling each otehr for the mantle of establishment favorite.

Donald Trump Names Sarasota's Joe Gruters as Florida Campaign Chair
Donald Trump’s presidential ambitions could put a Sarasota political leader in one of the most important campaign jobs in the country next year. Joe Gruters, chairman of the Republican Party of Sarasota, was announced on Friday as the chairman for Trump’s Florida campaign. “This is one of the few times ever when I have weighed in on a primary,” Gruters said. “I am not endorsing Trump as the chair of the Republican Party of Sarasota or as the vice chair of the Republican Party of Florida, but as an individual I will do all I can for a victory for Donald Trump. “At this point in the country’s history, he is the right person for the job.”
