Florida GOP governor candidate created Tinder account ‘to meet young female voters where they are’
James Fishback uses Tinder to promote paid maternity leave and a tax on OnlyFans content, aiming to engage young female voters in the Florida GOP primary.
- On Monday, Florida gubernatorial candidate James Fishback announced he joined Tinder to reach young female voters, saying he wants to `meet young female voters where they are` and share plans to help them marry, buy homes and raise families.
- Amid a field that includes Rep. Byron Donalds, Fishback is pitching an outreach plan, despite Donalds' Trump endorsement and AIPAC support, in this year’s GOP primary.
- On Tuesday morning Fishback posted a photoshopped mock Tinder match featuring Rep. Byron Donalds and AIPAC, after asking supporters to donate for Tinder Plus unlimited likes.
- Fishback faced immediate criticism for a proposed 50% `sin tax` on OnlyFans creators last month, and OnlyFans content creator Sophie Rain called it `the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard`, prompting Fishback to say he would not `let smart and capable young women like be exploited`.
- Fishback has denied wrongdoing, saying he was `fully exonerated` in court hearings; last year, Keinah Fort alleged she began dating him in 2022 while a minor working for Incubate Debate, and they were briefly engaged in 2024 despite an age gap of about 10 years.
