Of course, unless they interview every single Alex Rodriguez voter they can't know for sure, but it's a fairly logical assumption that 1% of the voters voted for the wrong Rodriguez.

WPLG reporter Glenna Milberg approached the South Florida address listed for Alex Rodriguez earlier this week ready to pepper him with questions: Why had the 55-year-old mechanic abruptly decide to run for office? How did he win nearly 3 percent of the vote without even a website? Did he live in Miami at all?
“I’m looking for Alex,” she told a white-haired man who answered the door. “Is he around?”
“Uh, no. He’ll be back tomorrow, though,” the man replied, refusing to say where Rodriguez was, how to reach him, or why a man with no history in politics — a registered Republican until a few months ago — had become an unaffiliated candidate for Florida’s 37th State Senate District.
Days later, Milberg discovered the man at the door had been lying. He was, in fact, Rodriguez, whose more than 6,000 votes may have tipped the election away from a Democratic incumbent in Miami with the same last name.

Maxine Waters does not live in her district.
Neither does AOC.
This kind of game has been played by leftists for a long time. Now with rank choice voting it is a blood sport

MUHUHAHAHAAA
Hah hah! I believe that is perfectly legal “cheating”. :)
IN FACT, as the guy was a former GOP before going Independent, he would have been FAR MORE LIKELY TO SIPHON VOTES OFF THE REPUBLICAN!
These MSM craphounds have to be called out on this. There has to be a market for this for someone to simply spend 2 or 3 hours every day obliterating the MSM with RIDICULE.
Yeah, I know Rush does it, and Levin too, but they rarely finish the job. I want that CraPo guy on a phone call on a live stream explaining how HE KNOWS it siphoned votes off the Democrat and then I want that puta at WPLG to do the same thing, how SHE KNOWS it didn't hurt the GOP candidate.
And another thing, Mr. Rodriguez, you should have opened the door with your phone camera recording your interaction with the MSM.

“Jeff Johnson - The Name You Know!”
Did you miss the part where he said that during his concession statement?
which one of these Rods was a better curve ball hitter?
I think it’s hilarious.
Why shouldn’t the gentleman be allowed to register to run for office?
The democrats are all about providing opportunities to minorities, right?
SO DARN FUNNY!
LOVE IT.
“I believe this election requires a full investigation so that those who may have violated the law are held to account and so that such tactics are not used in future elections.”
Oh that’s rich.
Crying because a typical democrat strategy was used against him. Up in massivetwoshits, papa joe kennedy would pay for people to run for office who had similar names to his son’s opposition.
There would be three or four Bob Smith’s on the ballot running against kennedy.
1% of 6377 -- less than 7 votes -- doesn't change the outcome. But thanks for playing.
I once read that this was the same tactic that Joseph Kennedy used to get his son, JFK, his first electoral win to get into Congress.
You must have taken that 'new math.'
The margin of victory for Garcia over JJ Rod was 31 votes. A. Rod took 6,377 votes.
A total of 215,578 votes were cast in the race. 1% of 215,578 is 2,156 votes.
But thanks for being snarky.
No, you were being asinine when you pulled this 1% number out of your ass, which puts you on an exact par with CraPo's Teo Armus and WPLG's Glenna Milberg.
They don't have evidence that it affected the vote either way and neither do you, but as a FReeper you ought to be goddamn ashamed of yourself for falling right in line with the MSM, WHO CAN ONLY BOTHER THEMSELVES TO WRITE SHAME SHAME SHAME ARTICLES ABOUT CONTESTED ELECTIONS THAT INVOLVE DEMOCRATS LOSING.
Do you understand that or do you need it in all caps?
You are just full of yourself this evening, aren’t you?
