DeSantis let her resign...
but she knew she had to.
That move probably helped him a little with the black vote.
I mean, a Republican at 35% approval among Black Americans is damn good.
He should. Immigration will still be a hot issue in 2024 and DeSantis just established his credentials as someone who will fight hard against illegal immigration!
Those are some crazy statistics
Broward County’s new supervisor of elections says he wants to get to the bottom of the office’s ballot-counting problems in the November elections and to make sure they don’t surface again in the future.
Peter Antonacci, who was formally sworn in to the position Thursday by Chief Judge Jack Tuter in a downtown Fort Lauderdale courthouse ceremony, said he met with staff Tuesday about the problems and expects to have a report completed in the near future.
“I hope within the next few weeks I’ll have a consumable, small report that will speak to what went wrong and, hopefully, what we can do to make it right,” Antonacci said.
Antonacci was Gov. Rick Scott’s choice to replace former Elections Supervisor Brenda Snipes, who Scott suspended last Friday.
Scott based his suspension on Snipes’ failure to meet a state recount deadline, that more than 2,000 ballots went missing during the recount and because Snipes allowed 205 provisional ballots to be opened and counted before the county’s Canvassing Board determined their validity.
He also said Snipes violated state and federal laws by prematurely destroying ballots from the 2016 elections and posted some county voting returns online in 2016 before polls had closed.
No! You can have him in 2028. He gets two terms in Florida.
Ok. I thought about it and IF Gaetz runs and wins the governor race in 2022 then you can have DeSantis for president.
DeSantis also got rid of the corrupt/incompetent Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections.
WEST PALM BEACH — Citing failures to meet ballot counting deadlines during last year’s contentious midterm election, Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections Susan Bucher Friday afternoon and named Republican lawyer Wendy Link as her replacement to “right the ship” — though he said Link would not seek the office in the next election and only fill the post for two years.
Not so sure all of that is comparable.
NYC is the largest population center, has the biggest subway and transit system, two very heavy airports and I think the most large suspension bridges. So the infrastructure costs I’m sure are not in line.
But your premise rings true. It’s a poorly run state full of half-wits, commies and welfare scam artists. At the head is probably one of the dumbest governor’s to ever occupy Albany.
I agree with both of your points. If so, it’ll be a long way down the road before Walker would be a presidential candidate.
But, compare him to McCain or Romney. America wouldn’t be AS screwed. ;)
President Trump sure has shed a light on so many situations/people and the puke RINOs. We’re SO lucky to have him! MAGA! :)
Only 83% of republicans approve of the job DeSantis is doing? The other 17% must be brain dead or members of Putnam’s family. Have these morons looked at the make-up of the Florida Supreme Court lately? Defeating the criminal Gillum was the most important political decision this state has made in a long, long time.
Ron DeSantis 2024! He’s great...and he was with President Trump in Orlando...he’ll be campaigning for President Trump, but he said that his job is Florida and helping the panhandle.
I wouldnt be worried about Florida in 2020 for Trump. The state will be in his bag. I’m more concerned about the Rust Belt and perhaps Sun Belt states like Arizona and Georgia may be vulnerable in 2020.
What I find truly amazing is how this happens EVERY TIME a politician takes a good solid conservative stand on an issue. Especially an executive.
Yet, the lilly-livered politician is always afraid of offending someone, so it is rare that a so-called conservative politician actually strongly stands up for conservative ideas. I just can’t fathom the lack of intestinal fortitude.
I worked with Ronald Reagan when he was Governor of California, and I dearly loved that man. That said, even he is no match for President Trump in terms of being an effective leader. In fact I will go one step further and say that we have had, with the exception of RR, noting but $hit for presidents for all of my nearly 79 years! Why it has taken us this long to find a true leader is beyond comprehension.
Donald Trump has opened my eyes to the fact that we have been ill-served by all of them going back to at least FDR. Why is it that we are so stupid? And I include myself in that description.

Thank Goodness that our Founding Fathers really WERE that much smarter than the rest of us! Were it not for that ‘Pesky Constitution’ of ours, we would’ve been sunk long ago.
I also believe that we’ve not gone ‘Full Frontal Socialist’ because, again, due again to that ‘Pesky Constitution’ we have not, nor will we EVER, run out of ‘other people’s money.’ We didn’t even run out of money during The Great Depression, and no one usurped us when we were ripe for the picking, either! :)
We are wealthy and powerful BEYOND IMAGINING in America, even when we have IDIOTS and MISCREANTS steering our ship.
We survived Carter. We survived 0bama and all the other semi-communists, Globalists and One-Worlder Dolts in between!
I count my blessing EVERY day that I was born in America. There isn’t another country on the PLANET that can hold a candle to Her.
Not. A. One. :)
“Why not solicit testimonies from legal Hispanics and their disgust. Play the legals against the legals. I think it would work..let the left focus on the illegals since they don’t vote...yet.”
That’s a good idea, but the Republicans still haven’t found anyone who can speak Hispanic to communicate with them, similar to their never-ending hunt for someone who can Asian, to communicate with that now really large minority, which is watching their children get SCREWED when applying to college.
(in other words, the idiots are totally TONE DEAF)

The 19th Amendment answers your question. There was a reason women were not allowed to vote when the country was founded, and that reason hasn’t changed, since it’s biological.
Damn straight...
— except with Democrat voters and black Americans —
Sigh. Some things never change. Like Trump, no matter how much good this governor is for Florida, there will always be people who will never support him.
