None of the GOP has said anything against it, so I guess we can all just register in however many states as we want. Probably can vote in all the races, too.

Cool.

So we just have to rent a cheap trailer anywhere we want to vote?

Is that how it works for the GOP?

Please help me understand why our governor and Republican state legislators cannot find the time to address the needs of everyday taxpayers in this state. Instead of seeking ways to increase health care for the uninsured, reduce skyrocketing rents for soon-to-be homeless Floridians and address property insurance costs, they are busy attacking Disney and creating voting districts that favor their base. Yes, they are holding yet another special session in May (at taxpayers’ expense) to talk about property insurance, but where were these concerns in the regular legislative session. I suspect they were buried under the scripts of political theater designed to feature the governor. I guess I should be thankful that when I am homeless and uninsured at least I do not have to worry about textbooks in schools that might talk about the economic and racial divide in Florida or that teachers might accidentally launch into a sex education class in kindergarten. That is a solution looking for a problem.

I live in Florida and I am telling you, this is playing poorly here. We have actual needs that the legislature is just flat out ignoring in order to pursue these idiotic, harmful culture war bs battles.

Hopefully voters wake up and realize what the GOP brings to the table. They are only capable of hate and division.

Here's hoping. I don't love either person challenging DeSantis to be governor this time but - Jesus, I would take anything over this freak show. I know there are a lot of people who feel like I do, I just don't know if there's enough of us.

I’m moving to Florida in a few months, and look forward to voting against DeSantis.

Just don’t be disappointed to find out that you’re in the minority down there.

DeSantis beat Gillum by 32,463 votes. Not much of a majority.

Oof. DeSantis is toast.

Why are you moving there?

To vote against desantis. The one I lost in the florida covid carnage deserves it.

Anonymous wrote:I think this whole story amounts to a political bee sting. By dissolving Reedy Creek, Florida Republicans probably made it a little more cumbersome and expensive for Disney to operate and grow, but — let’s be honest — it’s not that Disney won’t get what it wants. Look at Universal. They’ve aggressively expanded without a special taxing district. And we already know that Disney has no qualms about raising ticket prices to offset any increased business costs.

And while I personally don’t agree with Ron DeSantis on any issue, I see him as a fairly shrewd politician. At the end of the day he’s not going to do anything that jeopardizes tens of thousands of jobs in his state.
