Are Democrats willing to invest in Florida for Kamala Harris?
That question has been open this cycle, with in-state Democrats talking up national interest in having the party invest here like once was a given, but to no tangible effect, until what may be a sea change promulgated by Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff at a New York City fundraiser Wednesday.
“The map is wide open, and we need the money to compete in seven and possibly eight states. I was just in Florida at the Villages, and it was wild,” tweeted Will McDuffie. “There was a lot of excitement, and we’re going to see what we can do down in Florida.”
If Democrats do play to win in the state, it could be a momentous sea change with down-ballot consequences in the Senate race and regarding this year’s slate of citizens’ initiatives, including pot and abortion measures.
According to polls, the race is closing. In this state, with a million more Republicans than Democrats, Trump is up by just three points on average.
Emhoff was in the Villages last week, where he addressed a number of topics, including Project 2025 and its “attacks on seniors,” while noting Trump has threatened political opponents, “praises the Jan. 6 insurrectionists,” still questions the 2020 Election, and invoked Hungarian leader Viktor Orban as a “character witness” during the debate with Harris.

Maybe you truly are a bobblehead?? He’s a distinguished lawyer and law professor at Georgetown University and the husband of Kamala Harris, but probably you already know this.

No, Miss Spoke is just a troll who changes her name every day – never adds anything to the conversation. Best to ignore.

Yes Michael K is another lefty that is intolerant of point of views that he disagrees with. My comment about Emhoff is correct. Take a sample size of 10, 100, 1000, 10,000. As large as you like. Now ask each one of them who Emhoff is ? I would bet lots of money that roughly 90% would have no idea. 🤣

MAGA MARK, your logic says that the more you’re known the better, right? so you criticize doug for not being well known enough. SO, by your logic, charles manson, who is well known, would be better. your logic is often infantile and ridiculous.

I really chuckle when you list Emhoff’s educational credentials. Every time I post our fine Governor’s I get laughed at by you lefty’s. Thanks for the morning laugh. 🤣

Not to worry. The least qualified VP in the post-Civil War era is standing by if anything untoward should occur to DJT who is showing his age more and more.

Good Morn ‘Ting America,
STAND BY FOR SAGE WISDOM FROM “E”:
Here is what you need to know America – the “would be” 1st “Dook 4 Brains” gentelman is putting out the Democrats “Advertizement” for any business in Florida willing to take their momey, conduct a bare mimimum of promotion, and return the Lions Share of their vast campagin funds to Top Democrats in the form of “Personal” kick-backs. [Due to the fact they know Democrats can not win].
Anyway, everyone can Relax Their Political Sphincters as Ron, the Beautiful Casey, and the Sage Ashley [FL AG] are just now finding out about my, “E”‘s, Sage Wisdom along with you, the Gentle Reader.
I, “E” [FKA ELVIS, FKA EARL], will be meeting with Ron, Casey, and Ashley to lead the charge, with my Sage Jurisprudance, to shut this Dook 4 Brains Leftist scheme to defraud the public down.
Thank you America,
“E” [FKA ELVIS, FKA EARL]

Watch yourself E dude,
This was propriatary leftist eyes only information E dude,
Your nosey digging into Our business practices in Florida needs to stop E dude.
America just ignore this E dude’s nonsenseical untrue words as they are so much just a part of a vast right wing conspirancy.
I encourage Florida’s Govornor to also ignore this E dude’s rambaling nonsense too. There is really no need to look into how we run out our campaign in Florida or anywhere else.
Thanks guys, DougE

The DeSantis contamination is wearing off; MAGAts are slowly dying off. Florida will be in play soon enough.

Florida is more in play than people will admit. Especially DeSantis. Just because you are registered as a republican doesn’t mean you need to vote for only republicans. Same goes for democrats. Don’t count out the independents either. DeSantis has done a lot of damage here
