West was leading Murphy by a tiny margin late Tuesday with a majority of the vote counted in the district that spans Palm Beach, Martin and St. Lucie counties.

Any voter who could reject a man of Col Wests character and abilities does not deserve to be called an American.

I’d like to see him replace Bohner as Speaker of the House.

there needs to be a new definition in what it takes to be an American , or to hold the right to vote . We have truly thrown our pearls to the swine . While looking at the enemies without , we have been overrun within

I would say rejecting West in favor of Murphy is extraordinary and boggles the mind? WTF?

That makes a very bad night even worse, if that’s possible.

The founding fathers intended this country to have a much more restrictive franchise than it has. If people are allowed to vote themselves other people’s money they will.
