Wow... I've been to The Villages (just to visit). It's pretty serious conservative country. I wouldn't think liberals would fit in very well there... ;-)
Allen West's district is pretty far from The Villages, which is inland and NW of Orlando. His district includes the Palm Beach and Jupiter areas, which are along Florida's SE coast.
Sadly- deep blue. About 2:1.
But their counts have been so inaccurate, there is a chance he could gain the about 250 votes he needs to trigger a District wide recount (Martin, Palm Beach, St. Lucie)
Palm Beach he won- narrowly. A recount could widen that margin.
Hope springs eternal.
I am slow tonight... I think I just figured out the question.
I do not know how long Romney has/had to un-ring the bell and begin a challenge.
I meant to ping you to #141... re: The Villages in FL.
Nothing to see here.. move along, Look General Petraeus is having an affair... see sex! and ahh another General wants sex too...
I saw it- so true. It is Republican Country!
Thanks for the update, Goldwater Girl. Is this why Rep. West was re-districted, so as to include the deep blue St. Lucie county?
oh sorry I am actually not yardstick but wildstreak=yldstrk, see? It’s a Hank Jr song.
that is awesome. If I told my family that I would be totally alone except for my kids.
I caught him on facebook calling me a teabagger.
Well, honestly, despite being liberal they are very nice people. I am shocked that I’m even saying that, but it is the case.
Still, I’m troubled that they are part of a serious problem in this country. I suppose that some people just do not see or understand the damage that their voting is causing. I can’t imagine that these two people in particular would be doing that on purpose. If they were, that would make me sad.
Heh, I understand that, Mr. SNIPER, what’s being done to our country is the most serious thing that I have ever seen in my entire life. It is heartbreaking, and I do not believe I could forgive my brother if he was a democrat or worse.
Luckily he is a republican, a bit moderate, but I can be that way too I suppose on certain issues. I just wish he would look further into what is happening and deepen his understanding, but I am happy that he knows what he does know.
I credit myself for that, I have been bending his ear on this for years.
It has more to do with the Constitutional amendments that passed 2 years ago. Plus we had to add 2 more new Congressional Districts. The people said they wanted competition- and they sure got it.
Martin is solid R, St. Lucie solid D, and Palm Beach has some of each. He won Martin and Palm Beach.
LOL... can’t help it. Every time I see one of your posts, I read it as yardstick. It reminds me of the nun that used to attack me, but after I learned that you’re a lawyer I felt safe again. ;>)
I am a fan of Hank Williams Jr.
this is where we should see a Battle for the Ages...I know the Colonel will but the lame arse pub elites?......
The Villages is in Lake County I believe. It is very Conservative so and Dems moving there will not be among many like minded folks.
This is a little different from the usual miraculous discovery of a box of ballots for the Democrat candidate. This time they removed ballots for the R candidate. It looks like they were worried that they didn’t have enough walking dead and illegal voters, so they just hid some of the Republican ballots.
People need to go to jail for this. Not long - but the word needs to get out that this will not accepted.
Right it the mantra is - its all part of the game. Its not and its time to hold people - even at the lowest levels accountable.
They were missing.... in her office!
