CLUB MEDDLES IN FLORIDA PRIMARY - The Club for Growth is going after Rep. Patrick Murphy, the Democratic establishment's pick for Florida's Senate race for supporting renewal of the Export-Import Bank, while praising potential liberal challenger Alan Grayson. The ad "represents the first conservative effort to meddle in what could be a hard-fought and expensive Democratic primary," POLITICO's Marc Caputo writes, noting: "The Club has endorsed GOP Rep. Ron DeSantis in the Florida Senate race, though he's likely to face a competitive primary himself."

- Murphy campaign manager Josh Wolf responded to the ad "The fact that an ultra-right-wing Super PAC that aims to privatize Social Security is attacking Patrick is the clearest sign that he's the strongest candidate in this race. Patrick entered public office to fight back against Tea Party obstructionists like the Club for Growth who are intent on outsourcing Florida jobs overseas and privatizing Social Security and Medicare.'

DEMS HOPE FOR HILLARY COATTAILS - Campaign Pro's Kyle Cheney, Theo Meyer and Elena Schneider (ran on Campaign Pro Tuesday):

TITUS WON'T RUN - See how simple it is to tell people if a candidate is or isn't running? Rep. Dina Titus announced Tuesday she wouldn't run for the Senate seat of the retiring Harry Reid, likely clearing the Democratic field for former state Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto, the preferred candidate of the party establishment. But her announcement came in the form of a very confusing statement that ended with: "That's why I'm pleased to announce today that I'm running..." She then linked to this video, which makes it clear she's running for reelection to the House.

COURT WILL HEAR POPULATION VS. VOTERS CASE - The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case from Texas arguing States should be allowed to count the number of registered voters instead of total population when drawing state legislative districts. The AP has more: "The case from Texas could be significant for states with large immigrant populations, including Latinos who are children or not citizens. The state bases its electoral districts on a count of the total population, including non-citizens and those who aren't old enough to vote. But those challenging that system argue that it violates the constitutional requirement of one person, one vote. They claim that taking account of total
population can lead to vast differences in the number of voters in particular districts, along with corresponding differences in the power of those voters. A ruling for the challengers would shift more power to rural areas and away from urban districts in which there are large populations of immigrants who are not eligible to vote because they are children or not citizens."

2016 SPEED READ - "It's not your everyday Americans at Bernie Sanders' kickoff rally," by Jonathan Topaz in Burlington, Vt.: "[W]hile Sanders, the state's independent U.S. senator, may be way behind in national presidential polls, in Burlington, he's a local hero. In the afternoon, a 'people's assembly' of hundreds of Sanders supporters gathered in City Hall Park, where dreadlocked guitarists played in the morning and patrons browsed at the nearby Hempest, which advertises itself as the largest organic hemp product store in the world. The People for Bernie rally was organized by several former Occupy Wall Street activists, including Ready for Warren co-founder Charles Lenchner. ...
'Everyone who's afraid of the word socialism, take a step in!' Lenchner said, drawing laughter and applause from the crowd when no one did."
