Florida in November
Interesting races set up by yesterday's primary results.
We're going to have a Trump vs. Sanders proxy battle as Donald's man DeSantis squares off against Bernie's guy Gillum for the state house. At the same time, term-limited Gov. Scott will try to unseat Nelson in the Senate.
Eyes will be on the Sunshine State for sure - 2000 without the hanging chads.

Florida is a Red state. I'll put my money DeSantis. Scott needs a Hail Mary.

And Mary has been pushing up daises for centuries.

Well, the got a few Bernie people to vote in a primary.
LAst week of summer, probably not of people who will be voters cared.
I would imaging they somehow tied in a ride to the Early bird dinner with a primary vote. Maybe even a ticket to the desert bar.

You got the advantage of being on the ground in that state, what chance do you give to the socialist Mike? %?

All depends on the turnout - Florida is not, of course, a red state for top of the ticket positions, but pretty much split. I would think both candidates need to worry about being too far "out there."

But you would not even give him a 50/50 shot, or are you thinking less percentage?

The socialist has about a ten percent chance.

If DeSantis keeps yapping clumsily, Gillum's got a real good chance.

I will be paying close attention to the amount of money the DNC puts into the gubernatorial race and the senate races...... it should be interesting. Also, the vote totals between Nelson and Gillum....should give some very good insights.
