Among voters who say they are certain to vote in the upcoming election, Gillum leads 49% to 44%.

“I absolutely refuse to believe all of these polls. Americans cannot be this stupid. President Trump has literally saved the country.”

Never, ever underestimate the bizarre ways of American voters. They are among the most emotion-driven, mercurial creatures on the face of the earth.

Stop with the drama..

Desantis job is to get elected not being distracted by Trump twits
about a storm a year ago ..

Trump needs to stay focus on his allies elections not
twitting about year old storms .

No one cares in FL .

I don’t believe this poll and/or that this will hold. Gillium is a loon and was surrounded by corruption in Tally.

The mud slinging hasn’t even started yet, and you can bet the FBI investigation into Gilliam’s brother and Tallahassee government will come into play.

Yeah right. The FBI will put the entire thing on ice until AFTER Gollum is elected.

Well, some of us care about Desantis’s stupid press release, my friend, which sucked up to Puerto Rican idiots who have no intention of voting for him and alienating Trump supporters in Florida. But have it your way...

I’ve seen lots of Gillum signs around as I drive, no DeSantis at all.

Of course. He betrayed Trump.

He stabbed President Trump in the back! Governor has no power to enact any laws. Florida will survive Gillum. I will vote for Rick Scott for Senator. He didn't side with the President but the Senate is too important to be petty over. Governor's race not so much.

The left in Florida deserve a Socialist Governor if nothing more than to see how idiotic Socialists are. I can move very easily if they enact an income tax (which is the only reason I stay here).

I don’t think most voters know how lefty socialist Gillum is.

Many Floridians will be in for a rude awakening if he becomes their governor.

My 300 condo complex is full of transplants from East coast. On woman in my building from Massachusetts still has John Kerry for President bumper sticker on her car.

Right now, democrats have more energy and they support anyone with (D) behind their name. If negative Ads against Gillum become more visible and frequent, he will lose many affluent democrats in Florida.

Exactly - people move from their s-hole northern states to the south with the better economies, then vote as they did in the north. And then can’t figure out what happened.

I think we need a rule - you move to a new state, can’t vote in a state election for 10 years. Also wouldn’t help to force the person to get some basic civics education before allowing them to vote.

No doubt. Hope they find out BEFORE election. We have early voting in place in FL, so DeSantis needs to get to work fast.

The Poll was taken by Pulse polling not Rasmussen
on Sept 10 and 11 .

Trump dragged up that year old storm stuff after this poll .

The poll is garbage .

Nobody has any name recognition .

Pulse polling did some crappy work for the new owners of Rasmussen poll firm

It’s over.

America is finished.

We are already the Soviet Union.

The Gulags are next.

They will irradiate us.

Ship us to concentration camps.

Kill our daughters.

We are so screwed.

There is no hope.

Thats exactly what is happening throughout the south. Florida, Texas, NC and such will fall in time. Demographics will/is taking everything down.

Open borders lovers have destroyed this country.
