Florida GOP and Pro TBX county commission candidates Sandy Murman and Tim Schock had more important things to do and could not make it.

"Murman is afraid to debate me because then she'll have to answer about her ethics issues that tainted the GoHillsborough process and wasted millions of dollars that ended with her vote to kill and chance we have of funding/building/operating a 21st century transit system."

Tampa Ranked Nearly Dead Last
Right Wing Calhoun County, Florida
Calhoun County is a little rural county in Florida’s panhandle. It’s closer to Alabama than to Miami – and its citizens vote like Alabama. It’s two-thirds white and two-thirds of its votes went to Florida’s right-wing GOP governor in 2014. But on Oct. 4, the teachers in Calhoun County’s school system made history: They voted union, with theNational Education Association. the NEA had to run an undercover campaign to organize them. That’s because Rick Scott, had convinced the overwhelmingly Republican state legislature, five years ago, to eliminate tenure. Say “the ‘u’ word” and you might be out of a job in an area like

Local Idiot Daniel Davis
Florida GOP and Pro TBX
Hillsborough County Commission candidate Tim Schock fired his campaign manager Daniel Davis after learning that in a recent political argument on Facebook, the manager used a homosexual slur and told a military veteran he didn't respect his service.

The Dunedin Chamber of Commerce Cozy Relationship With Government
During a four-year period ending September 30, 2015, the Dunedin Chamber of Commerce received $74,500 in government grants from the city and the county. The chamber is a private corporation, not a government agency, yet it receives money from the city without a contract specifying what the money is to be used for. here

Patrick Is Fucked
After sticking us with this crap when we could of had real Dems Grayson or Keith, Washington Democrats are now abandoning Patrick Murphy in his race to unseat Marco Rubio, increasing the long odds the challenger faces and angering Florida Democrats who say their party is indirectly helping the Republican politically rehabilitate as he eyes a future White House bid. here

Rick Scott: Poppycock
A federal judge ordered a one-day extension in Florida's voter registration deadline and seemed ready to consider a longer delay against the backdrops of the recovery from Hurricane Matthew. U.S. District Judge Mark Walker said the state should continue accepting voter registration papers through 5 p.m. Wednesday. He also set up a Wednesday morning hearing to consider a request by the Florida Democratic Party to keep registration open until Oct. 18 – a week after the initial deadline was set to pass. here
Floridians Stop Being So Fucking Stupid!

More than three-quarters of the $21 million raised by Consumers for Smart Solar (Amendment 1) has come from the state's four largest utilities —- FPL, Duke Energy, Tampa Electric Co. and Gulf Power.
This is a sham. It is an effort to hinder the development of alternative fuels. Get your head out of your ass and pay attention.

Republicans Hope Hurricane Matthew Will Deliver Florida To GOP
Florida Governor Rick Scott refuses to extend the deadline to register to vote, even though his state is being rocked by a massive hurricane. Could it be because the areas affected by the storm lean heavily Democratic?
