I haven't seen the full transcript but I saw him talking about it in a news clip where he said similar but what he was saying was there is not going to be a need for mail-in ballots. So, he's not worried about it...meaning Florida will not use mail-in, so he wasn't worried about it. Not defending him necessarily, but I think context is important.

So is it possible he is not concerned because it will not be happening? Link provides no context.

This could be translated as saying "I'm not worried because mail-in ballots won't happen in Florida."

Broward County, Florida is to blame for the Hanging Chads/Bush v Gore Debacle, and the absolute shitshow that was their last gubernatorial election where they magically “found” some absurd number of paper ballots favoring the meth head closeted gay communist that the Democrats nominated.

Florida is the state where I trust mail in ballots the least.

Further, Florida is a swing state that could actually determine the outcome.

I DGAF about California. They can count fake votes to their hearts content. It won’t change anything

I have voted by mail every election since I have been in Florida . Seems to work ok here since the system is down pat I assume. I do sometimes worry but then I can look up whether my vote was received online.

I bet if his seat was up for re-election he would have a problem with it . I’ve always said , Trump does not only have the democrats and the media against him , but also these POS republicans as well. I’d say loyal followers to him In Washington is prob around 20 people both in the house and senate .

No he is referring to regular voters. I have voted by mail since I have lived here

Rubio wants Trump to lose.

This is a fact.

He is part of a group that's wants to be able to discredit Trump and Trumpism.

He doesn't want to run on a Trumpist agenda in 2024.

It will be easier for him in 2024 to run against a weak Democrat failed President.

He is short-sighted, pun intended.

If Trump is not reelected, Trump is the last Republican President.

Democrats will make it so.

Broward County,


Broward is locked down for this election, because Rick Scott fired that hag and either he or DeSantis appointed her replacement. Plenty of other densely populated shitholes in S Florida for shenanigans, though, and now felons can vote.

that entire tweet is vague as hell.

i'd like to see the context of the full question in his response. not a fan of Rubio but lets pump the brakes on believing every little tweet with no source

It seems he thinks for himself and doesn’t feel the need to politicize everything or parrot everything Trump says. I like it, I think it’s admirable not to fall in line with the sheep.

They just showed where 63% of voters are in favor of vote by mail. Where are these pollsters? Most of us do not answer unknown numbers. Are they calling govt. phones?

I lost faith in the turd during the last election cycle. I was warned about his participation in the group of 8 but did not learn until later about his weakness politically.
