Typically, midterm elections are low turn out and give an edge to the party that is out of power. Presidential elections draw many more people. This November that may not be true. The deep philosophical differences and the success of the Trump administration coupled with the rancor over the Kavanaugh decision seems to have fired up voters on both sides. In Florida, the voting is also spurred by ecological and natural disasters. Participation is good. Ill informed, party line participation is not. In our Governor's race, look at who has a record of accomplishment, who has demonstrated an ability to work well with others, who has a plan of how to solve problems going forward, and who has an understanding of the challenges facing the people of Florida. Ron DeSantis doesn't believe that socialism solves problem, Gillum does. Cast your vote accordingly. It will have a long term effect.
