Way closer than expected

He’s up what .5%?
This was a catastrophe don’t even want to know how badly the down ballot house races went.

He’ll probably end up winning by 2%+ but yes closer than expected.

Donalds and Moody both won. Amendment 3 looks like it will pass. Amendment 1 looks like it will fall short, which is a good thing.
Compared to the rest of the U.S., Florida is doing okay tonight. The only real disappointment is the redistricting didn't work and it looks like they'll pick up none of those Democrat seats in the House.

3 was the priority to get passed.

Definitely. To me that was more important than the Governor's race and second only to the Senate race.
Don't get me wrong, Jolly would've been a mess for Florida as Governor, but with the Republican Legislature in Florida, he would've largely been neutralized. He wouldn't get any meaningful legislation passed and the Republicans would've made his life miserable.
But yeah 3 passing for me was my big thing and Donalds winning is good as well (though I personally hate he was our candidate).

I hadn’t even considered a possibility Donalds would lose even though I wanted someone else in the primaries.
So I’m still processing that were whistling past a scenario where we could’ve lost the governorship and legislature.

Florida remains MAGA land

More of the democrats narrative is destroyed that us republicans are racist. They probably hate that more than they are happy for a black American man to make history.

I don’t give AF what race Donalds is.
A lot of people gave a lot of F’s that from an optics perspective he was chosen by the S FL donor class that got us into Iran and Trump basically said “so what, deal with it.”
So I’m glad he won relative to the alternative, but I’m not excited about him as a governor. He voted red consistently as a congressman and as long as he does that as a governor I can live with it.

Phew. Was nervous for a bit.

Gross

What’s really funny is that 75% of black men and 94% of black women voted against a black man.

Florida will miss Ron, ruthlessly efficient as a governor and it’s a damn shame he will probably never be president.

If he governs like a MAGA RINO populist and does the bidding of Susie Wiles and Roger Stone then he needs to be primaried in 2030 by an actual conservative.

Glad he won, but not the ideal candidate. Stop gap.
