Those statistics make me sad! We were so close. Not only David but Angie too.

At least the Republicans lost their super majority in the Florida House and hopefully we'll continue to make gains🤞

Thanks, Miss Mingo, certainly says it all...

"That means 32%—nearly a third—of all Democrats sat out the election. If just 10% of those people had voted, David Jolly would be our next governor instead of Byron Donalds."

I need to take off my rose-colored glasses that Florida was actually increasing Democrat voter turnout compared to the dismal turnouts that helped elect 2-term Jeb Bush, 2-term Rick Scott, and 2-term Desantis.

Or maybe we need a new approach to get back to former Governor Bob Graham days.

I thought his daughter, Gwen Graham, Jolly's Lieutenant Governor candidate, might've awaken some, maybe not.

You all stand in the rain for things less important than keeping a criminal out of the governers house. Now when Donald Duck starts raping the state will the same non voters bitch about it? They took the trouble to register WHY not vote?

Not voting is literally voting against your best interests. So sad for what is about to befall Floridians in the next four years.

Dumpy lost a lot in that election. And some are saying Byron isn't much of a consolation prize. Some are saying.
