[quote:Remedial_Rebel:MV8zOTE1Nzk1XzcwNjQ0ODIzXzhGNkM2ODM5] [quote:DavidKay001:MV8zOTE1Nzk1XzcwNjQzNjUwX0NFNkRCQUY3] [quote:Truth Reaper:MV8zOTE1Nzk1XzcwNjQzNDc5Xzg2MDNCNEJG] [quote:Remedial_Rebel:MV8zOTE1Nzk1XzcwNjQzNDM2XzcyRDA2QzJB] I live in the Tampa area since 2004. Myself and people that have migrated here in the past 25 years do so to escape the cost of living in states like NJ and NY. The state is 1/3 seniors living on a fixed income. We all know if a radical lefty gets in as governor, taxes will explode and cost of living will sky rocket. The only way Gillum gets in would be by massive voter fraud. Florida state house and senate is 2/3rds republican. The state and local elections run very conservative. Only in federal elections is Florida a swing state. Latest polls have Gillum only 1 point ahead which is within margin of error. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2018/governor/fl/florida_governor_desantis_vs_gillum-6518.html#polls If I was betting, DeSantis will win. BTW, I've been seeing several California plates lately, gee I wonder why? [/quote] I sure hope DeSantis wins. I can't believe it's so close. [/quote] They keep increasing the numbers of working poor people, its going to be close this year. In a decade, it wont be close. Conservatives will be run out of everywhere due to the let them eat cake attitude on salaries. The left will just use violence and hand outs to manage us. You have millions of kids growing up poor under working-class families in Florida, they are being trained to hate capitalism. In contrast, my God Daughter's in NYC cant wait to start working. They see the benefit of work there while Florida practices work for slave pay or die in the Sun. [/quote] I agree that poor blue voters are increasing, notably from Puerto Rico hurricane refugees. But they are offset by people migrating from high tax states which now include California. [i]New numbers show exodus from California Sharon Robinson, sales manager at Johnson Storage and Moving, says she's seen the local exodus pick up the last few years, led by residents fed up with housing costs and taxes headed to lower-cost states like Nevada, Arizona and Texas. Other states favored by Californians include Colorado, Idaho, [b][u]Florida[/u][/b], Washington and Oregon. [/i] https://www.wptv.com/news/national/new-numbers-show-exodus-from-california [/quote]
Original Message
Gillum is a straight-up socialist and made a mess of Tallahassee but has consistently been tracking several points ahead of DeSantis.
I learned the uselessness of polls during Trump's election but still -- it's worrisome. I can't imagine living here with Barack 2.0 destroying all the gains our state has made.
Any thoughts?
