Voter registrations decidedly favor Republicans over Democrats now for the first time in history. That is better than before.
Yes, things are more expensive in Florida and most everywhere - in large measure because Democrats AND Republicans in Washington continue to print trillions of dollars and pump it into the economy. This causes inflation. The Florida governor did not cause this.

If your Florida home has doubled in value you are probably not sad. If your adult child is trying to buy their first home in Florida, you probably are sad.
If you can get or afford property insurance too. RDS couldn’t help himself by inviting everyone down here plus bonuses for cops, teachers, etc moving from all over the country. Every single piece of land is being developed . Traffic! OMG! No wonder he wants to bolt.
