Palatka residents looking for a hot meal this afternoon may get a side of politics on the right with their burgers and fries.
HD 20 Republican candidate Judson Sapp will be joined by Donald Trump-aligned political operative Roger Stone at the town’s Beef O’Bradys starting at noon Saturday.
Beef O’Brady’s has hosted at least one important event in Florida political history: the first date of Gov. Ron DeSantis and First Lady Casey DeSantis, as documented by the Governor in his book that came out last year.
While a love connection isn’t likely to be struck Saturday by any of the attendees at the Sapp-Stone symposium, Stone’s sojourn to Palatka is the latest sign that Sapp is likely to win the HD 20 race.
He has roughly $260,000 banked for the stretch run of the Primary, while opponent Jamie Watts has roughly $4,000 on hand.
The Primary winner will face Democrat Tony Connolly, who has a little more than $2,000 cash on hand in a district with a massive GOP registration advantage.

THE GHOST OF CHRISTMAS PAST.
Roger Stone should definitely be heard, if only to remind us of what will happen to us if we stay active after our shelf-life has expired.

Palatka Florida, demographics say Trump/DeSantis, any republican should lose. I’ll just go ahead and say…election interference.

Nothing says I am ethically bankrupt more than feting one of the architects of the 2000 stolen election in Florida than Stone, who had to be pardoned by Trump or he might still be in prison orange. (Perhaps O’Brady’s has a dock that can be named Perp Walk in honor of Stone’s visit.)
