| Top flashpoint | Abolishing or defunding ICE and hard-line Israel criticism in a swing seatLarkin’s call to defund ICE and his anti-Israel positioning gave opponents an easy ‘too far left’ contrast in a district the campaign itself described as competitive. | · |
| Their response | Larkin framed ICE policy around investigations of alleged rights violations and framed Israel policy as opposition to U.S. complicity, while distinguishing his position from right-wing anti-Israel politics. | · |
| Why it fits Piker | Larkin’s former Sanders staff role, union organizing, Medicare for All, anti-corporate fundraising, ICE defunding, and anti-Israel politics offered Piker a high-risk chance to export the movement-left model into a competitive Florida district. | · |
