DeSantis won the 2018 Florida gubernatorial election by a squeaker because of vote fraud. The dems did manage to get Nikki Fried into office as commissioner of agriculture by the same mechanism, and one of the first things DeSantis did once in office was shut down the vote fraud centers located, as always, in the democrat-run urban centers. Which is why the only 'Red Wave' the U.S. saw in 2022 was in in the Sunshine State.

Of course, Gillum, being black, will be whining about 'racism', even though the real reason is that he's scum.

I'm compiling a list of FReepers interested in Florida-related topics.

DeSantis ran a relatively weak campaign in 2018 due to inexperience in Florida statewide campaigns and lack of a network of political contacts and organization throughout the state. Florida's “Red Wave” in 2022 was due to the continuing decline of the state Democratic Party's headquarters operation and a major influx of new Republican voters. Better laws against vote fraud also helped, but not enough to account for the Florida GOP's great results in 2022.

DeSantis    Gillum	total 2018 
4,076,186   4,043,723	 8,167,049	

DeSantis    Crist	total 2022
4,614,000   3,105,560	 7,770,419
             -938,163

They took a dive in Florida in 2022 to spend the vote fraud money elsewhere, and to boost DeSantis nationally.

They weren't going to beat him in an off-year, anyway.

I'll note also The JoeTatoe numbers in Miami-Dade alone in 2020 - AFTER the vote fraud issue had supposedly been corrected:

Nearly a million Democrat "voters" disappeared from Florida between 2018 and 2022.

The "By Any Means Necessary" Party, the Party that Never Quits - just up and quit in Florida in 2022.

Also note that 300,000 Democrat "voters" disappeared in Miami-Dade County in a mere two years...
