I know it's early but ... what are you seeing at the polls ?
Trump Affect !!!
I believe that most, if not all, of Florida now uses optical scan paper ballots. We’ve used them here in Volusia County for many years.
Careful Florida there is a Trumpnado in the forecast!
At my precinct in Daytona Beach, there were only four candidate signs visible anywhere. All were for Cruz.
We vote on Diebold machines. Mine glitched before I could start. The poll worker apologized and re-programed the card (thus voiding the first attempt) and I voted.
It was going to be Cruz but he lost me when he blamed Trump for the Chicago incident. I met several others outside the voting building who said the same.
My inlaws in Ohio told me there is a 1 to 4 split for Cruz over Trump. Mostly BC of the bad press on Trump.
I live in heart so Democrats...South Fort Lauderdale. ...80 percent Democrats...NO ONE in line at all except 4 Trump Supporters...and one undisclosed person aka Democrat...usually longer lines and other way around regarding composition of the voters.
It was 21 then to vote
That would make them 77 minimum
I think we have or had a 89 year old WWII vet as of last year
We have plenty of 70 somethings
I bet we have historic turnout in florida, just like most of the other states so far.
At least you get to choose your flavor of crap.
BTW, if you *really* think you agree 100% with somebody running for office, the ONLY way that can occur is
1) Because it’s you running for office
2) Because you don’t know enough about the candidate.
Get involved, or quit your griping!
You didn’t believe the bad press Ronald Reagan got?
I seem to remember they tar’d and feathered him on
1) He’s too old and senile
2) He’s an out of work actor
3) He will start a war with the soviets
4) Would you want a senile old man with his finger on the button
5) He was not “for the working man”
6) He was in a movie with a monkey (Bedtime for Bonzo) Not a serious candidate.
7) He can’t win - we have polls - he can’t win!
Cruz's worst nightmare, both Rubio and Kasich continue on.
CAN Kasich extend his head upward?
KMA
Reminds me of those native Indians who supported Cortez against the Aztecs and later bragged about it. How did that work out for them?
Voting against Trump only to deny him the nomination means that they are depending upon the GOP-E to continue doing what they have been doing - screwing over the public.
Lucky!!!!!
That's what amazes me about all these Trump opponents. There doesn't seem to be one whit of political acumen among these "seasoned veterans".
When the Chicago riots cancelled Trump's appearance, any REAL politician would have seen the opportunity and come out with something like "God knows, I have differences with Donald Trump, but this fascist anti-free speech is despicable and I call on all freedom-loving candidates to condemn these tactics." I suspect he would have gone up 10 points, but no, they all committed political seppuku by blaming Trump.
Those are the machines that Indiana and Colorado de certified in 2011-2012. They can be manipulated by exterior devices. That’s how Obama won Indiana first time around
200+ page report available from IN secretary of state
Mine was for Ike in 1956 (Tricky Dick was his VP) - he took it by 86% against Adlai Stevenson.
Would that that would happen again with either of our guys.
That was me, my wife and voting age kids...early voted.I will say this, in my area north central FL, only Trump had people out with signs. And they were enthusiastic to say the least :)
