U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz posted photos purportedly comparing a crowd at his campaign event to a child sleeping at a Rebekah Jones for Congress table, but it's missing critical context.
The photo showing Jones' table was taken Sept. 10 at the Emerald Coast Holistic Health Expo, a convention dedicated to holistic wellness and environmental sustainability. Jones said she attended the event with her son in Fort Walton Beach, Florida.
Scott Chase, the owner of the Emerald Coast Holistic Health Expo, confirmed Jones participated at the event as an exhibitor."This was not a political campaign event for anyone or any political party," Chase told PolitiFact."She or Gaetz could have registered as an exhibitor, and neither would have been refused."
