Its really too bad that we must celebrate an AG that has respect for our Constitutional Rights. This should be the norm and not the exception. Yes, we have a gem in our current AG. Far.....far better than some ladder climbing peroxide princess that thinks that our Rights are hers to decide. |
 He's got the best 2A record. Voted against Parkland. He specifically went against Legislative Leadership doing that. Voted for every pro-gun bill in Congress and against every anti-gun bill in Congress. Only member of FL's Congressional Delegation to specifically attack Pam Bondi for defending the NFA in court. Signed Rep. Andrew Clyde's letter, while everyone else didn't. Both as a State lawmaker and a Congressman, he's repeatedly stated he wants Parkland repealed in its entirety. |

I vote Fishback and I get 2A and no swamp. If I vote Donald's, I may get 2A and I'm sure to get the swamp and a focus on Isreal first. The Gangster Oligarc Party is spending millions on ads for Donald's and Trump is shoving Donald's on us. That's all I need to know. He will be a tool of the neocon GOP and an operative to a foreign government. Hard pass on that one. |

I’m not sure exactly what you’re worried about - is Donalds gonna activate the Florida NG and have them help bombing missions over Lebanon, or something? Governors generally don’t have a lot of foreign policy issues to deal with. As I’ve said before, governor isn’t an entry level position for someone with absolutely zero experience running any sort of organization. Fishburn has no accomplishments, or actual track record besides flapping his gums into a YouTube channel. He acts exactly like these worthless influencers who try to leverage speaking words into their phone, in an attempt to make a living without having to actually have a job. Donalds doesn’t do much for me either, and it’s a shame there’s not someone with accomplishments to vote for. But at least Donalds has worked his way up the elected ladder, not trying to parachute into the top from the start, and has been a strong 2A supporter not when it was easy, but when it was hard. For me, he’e the best of a mediocre lot. |

Both Paul Renner and Byron Donalds too have no question on established. The Sec. of State should be investigating this. |

I am voting for Jolly just to give a finger to Trump for well everything. I am not voting for Jay "Rambo" Collins because I can't stand when someone says Mission or Warrior for stuff that does not involve a war. As well as I have underwear that has been in Florida longer than him. I will not vote for my local rep, Linda Chaney because when I asked her about Florida House Bill 945 (2026) she told me that it did not pass committee, she forgot to mention that she was in the committee and voted for it. |

❌ Paul Renner
❌ Jay Collins
❌ James Fishback
❌ David Jolly
This election is about the gubernatorial race in Florida. The vast majority of interaction you have with government is state and local, not Congress and not the White House. The fact you're stating you're voting for Jolly tells us everything we need to know. The Second Amendment is the canary in the coal mine. It is the ultimate litmus test for how lawmakers will treat all your civil rights. Grow up and act like an adult. You have no damn clue of the fight I've been involved in here in Florida for over a decade now. |

Bro, I have been a cop since 1997, I was a PBA board member for ten years, the last four Mayors of Tampa know me by first name and the next one will also. I have sat on more PAC's than I can remember. I know all about political fights. Been there many times. The grow up commit is a bit low. This is what I have going on with the Republicans right now. Let's keep it to the ones in my area, but we will include DeSantis. I got my Congresswoman talking about UFO's, Operation Paper Clip and MKUltra in DC this week like she is in the X-Files. None of that is why we sent here there. Oh yeah, when we were attacking Iran and the Gov was shut down, she went out to L.A. to hang with Bill Maher. She should have been in D.C. or her office in Seminole. She cares more about building a nationwide brand then the voters of Pinellas County. Oh, and she moved here so she could run, that is a bit weak. My state Republican rep, Linda Chaney's husband is going to trail for tax fraud. He admits it in the Information that was filed. Instead of the party telling her to step aside and them getting someone new, they are running her again. It is all about winning not what is the right thing to do. She has also some shady shit going on with a 501(3) C her campaign manager runs, if her husband is dirty, well guess what. DeSantis put a fucking on my area with his redistricting map. It makes no sense for Pinellas County and that guy should know he grew up here. It was all done for the party, not done as the right thing to do. How about the carpetbagger Rambo he decided to put in the LT Gov spot, that was a good one. I have been a republican voter since I first registered at nineteen. The party needs to get their shit together on the local, state and federal level. My vote for Jolly, who I have voted for before when he was my congressman is a middle finger fuck you to, Trump, DeSantis, Anna Paul Luna, the state republicans and the Pinellas County ones. Nothing more nothing less. |

| As you may know, I'm a recent returnee to Florida, now in Sarasota. Any recommendations on the county supervisors, State House and Senate races, along with our new Congressional district? |

Hey gang....I used to live in Ft. Myers but this year I moved to Weeki Wachee/Hernando County. Anyone local who has any info for the local elections--County Commissioners or State Rep Dist 53? School board and judges are usually a crap shoot. |

I do not have a lot of intel to offer but - John Allocco (R) needs to go and Kara Champion should be a decent pick for the school board. |
| Just for awareness, I ran all of my ballot options though chat gpt. It was surprisingly good!! I learned a lot about the judges and school board folks than I would have of I were to search Google myself!! I've never been able to find out about the judges but it cleared up who I should choose very well!! |

I voted for Donalds but I was chagrin to see him giving a rimjob to Rick Scott during the victory speech. Asshole Rick Scott was the asshole who signed Florida’s Parkland gun control law and the reason we can’t have FRTs

Marshall Rawson won! That was a serious race because Rawson took out Brannan Jr, which was just going to be the puppeted mouthpiece of Brannan Sr. The jerk who blocked constitutional carry, threw pro-gun petitions in the trash. Rawson campaigned on repealing Parkland. He approached me over a year about running and getting our backing, so he can repeal Parkland. The behind the scenes political chicanery the Brannans played was disgusting. Including threatening area endorsees of Rawson to strip their endorsement by threatening to block budget appropriation legislation to the municipalities that endorsed Rawson. |
I know it has been said many times but it is worth repeating, thank you Luis for all you do for us.
