I’m one extra democrat vote in Florida that wasn’t there last time.
No. Give them affordable healthcare. Give them tax reform. Give them housing. Give them education. Give them peace.
Improve their lives and give them a reason to not just vote for the ‘R’ on the ballot. Worst case, you’ll improve your own life…
You mean, drag them into the 21st century kicking and screaming while they hate and curse you?
Who do you think is preventing those things‽ It’s not democrats who keep trying to dismantle the AMA, it’s not Democratic governors refusing funds to feed kids, it’s not democrats acting all 4th Reich like! They have tons of issues and in a different world I would be calling out their shenanigans but right now way way waaaaay to much is at stake.
They should hit Texas hard. Margins for victory get smaller every cycle and millions of registered voters stay home every cycle.
Yeah, I agree. Florida is kind of a lost cause right now because of all the more conservative retirees moving in all the time. Texas is at least getting bluer.
There’s been a lot of Republicans leaving states with Democratic governments for Texas. They tipped 2018 for Cruz, while Beto won the native Texan vote.
The Florida DNC is full of double agents. That’s why it can’t ever not fuck itself over. Florida is a top state when it comes to under handed bs.
It’ll be interesting to see how Debbie Powell campaigns against Rick Scott. Her early messaging is pretty weak, and her team is obviously trying to tie her in to the abortion amendment that might make the ballot (which is probably a mistake).
But there’s a lot to dislike about Rick Scott, so they have room to grow into a coherent message. Which would be a nice change of pace from the Florida Democratic Party, which can never seem to get out of its own way.
She faces very long odds in general, but especially given the party migration that’s happening in Florida the last few years. Here’s hoping she can put up the good fight and make Rick actually work for it for a change.
If their senate candidate is as bad as fucking charlie crist was for governor they’ll never win in florida. That election was a shit show
