FL Candidate Uses OnlyFans To Engage Miami-Dade Voters, Raise Money
"I thought you were a Republican. That's so kinky," a hemp farmer running for Miami-Dade county commission said in one OnlyFans video.

MIAMI, FL — A candidate for the Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners has found a creative way to campaign — sharing videos on OnlyFans.
The social media platform is a space for content creators of all types to share videos, images and other media, though it’s become known for more risqué material.
But Martha Bueno, a Libertarian hemp farmer running for the District 10 seat, is embracing the platform, using it to reach voters and raise money. Her opponents are Republican State Rep. Anthony Rodriguez, former federal law enforcement agent Susan Khoury and IT business owner Julio C. Sanchez.

In the video, the candidate sits on a bed in silk pajamas — fully clothed and completely covered — with a phone to her ear.
“I’ve been looking at your numbers and you have some really big ones,” Bueno said before turning to the camera to add, “That’s what she said. Donations, of course.”
In another clip, she said, “nobody’s heard from you in the district. I hear you’ve been a really bad boy this campaign.”
The candidate said in another clip, “I thought you were a Republican. That’s so kinky.”
CBS reported that as of Monday she had about 50 OnlyFans subscribers paying $4.99 a month to access her content.
“I’m not that girl that’s making the $3 million a month at this point. So, trust me, it’s not a whole lot of money,” Bueno told the news outlet.
According to the Miami New Times, as of July 29 she raised $25,631 in individual contributions, as well as another $56,400 from her political committee.
Meanwhile, Rodriguez has raised about $1.4 million in the race — $349,400 in individual contributions and about $1.1 million raised by his political committee.
In a tweet Tuesday, Bueno wrote, “If the media covered all political candidates, or if corporate donors didn’t buy candidates with (money) I wouldn’t have to find creative ways to get my name out. You can judge me, but I found a solution. Ultimately, isn’t that what the job is about?”
She told the New Times, "I mean, I think that there's only two ways really to raise funds in politics, and that is that you sell out or that you sell yourself. And so this is a way for me to sell myself.”
