Say what you will about Mother Jones, but their reporter has been on the ball this morning covering the manual recount, and it's looking real bad for Nelson:

Thanks for posting this story. It’s really good that FR does not ban articles from left wing publications. Sometimes they contain vitally important information like this.

Looks to me like a lot of black people voted against their basic economic interests and for Gillum just to stick with one of their own, but, when it came to two whites, decided not to vote for Nelson because of how well the economy was doing.

Because Broward is a heavily Democratic county

That's another way to say "Hell on Earth".

According to Dan Bongino, who lives in Florida, it’s not about the top of the ticket. It’s about the lower part of the ticket, for the Agriculture Secretary. The Agriculture Secretary has something to do with the distribution of guns and the Democrat is very anti-gun, while the Republican, Caldwell, is very pro-gun. Bongino says that the Dems are laying the groundwork for the 2020 elections where they will try to cheat on the lower ticket by distracting and challenging the top of the ticket.

I have friends/family in Broward county...I saw their sample ballot. The Senate race was on the first page of the ballot but on the bottom left. This MAY have accounted for people not voting in that race.

But, I can also tell you this: there were A LOT of black voters wearing Gollum t-shirts and who seemed SINGULARLY interested in voting to get a black governor. Race was what mattered—and they didn’t seem to care much about Bill Nelson.

I am convinced a lot of blacks went to the polls and found Gollum’s name, voted for him, and maybe one or two others and then moved on.

The ballot in Broward was huge. My friends had five or six pages to fill out, front and back. I don’t think many people cared about the smaller issues.

Hope for Nelson has not faded. The hope of many is that he is not the winner of this contemptible corrupt little Florida Castro managed process and this boil is forever lanced.

Florida IS CUBA.
