Republicans continue to win the ballot chase as the early voting period nears a close, and now hold their biggest lead of the 2024 cycle over Democrats
With 2,787,359 ballots cast between vote-by-mail and early voting, the Republican Party of Florida holds a 727,271-vote advantage over Democrats, who have cast 2,060,088 votes up until now.
If this trend continues, Democrats will have to do what they never do and dominate Election Day to have a chance to deliver the state for Kamala Harris and Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, and hope that no-party voters resoundingly prefer their candidates to Donald Trump and U.S. Sen. Rick Scott.
Of 3,743,643 total early votes in person, more than half (1,904,974) have been cast by Republicans. Democrats have cast 1,018,259 of their own, slightly outpacing no-party voters (732,461) and minor party members (87,949).
Democrats make up some ground in mail voting.
Of the 2,482,331 absentee ballots cast, Democrats are in the lead, with 1,041,829, ahead of Republicans (882,385), no-party voters (505,969), and other party members (52,148).

Back at you Demo. You really gonna vote for a person in charge of the southern border that never ever called the Border Patrol and ICE to ask them what they needed? The same border czar that compared these people to the KKK? Not no but helllllllllllll no.

“Lyin’ Kamala supported abolishing ICE. She compared ICE agents to members of the K.K.K. Can you believe it?”
— DJT at the North Carolina rally
“The distorted suggestion that Ms. Harris equated the agency with the Ku Klux Klan emerged from an exchange in 2018. That year, during a Senate hearing on Mr. Trump’s nomination of Ronald Vitiello as director of the agency, Ms. Harris questioned Mr. Vitiello about his past comments describing the Democratic Party as “neo-Klanist.” Mr. Vitiello responded that “it was wrong” to do so as the Klan was a domestic terrorist group that used “fear and force” to enact political change.
“Ms. Harris then asked Mr. Vitiello whether he was “aware of the perception” that ICE also used its power to cause fear and intimidation among immigrants. When Mr. Vitiello said he was not, Ms. Harris noted that the agency should work to correct the perception, no matter its accuracy. She agreed with Mr. Vitiello that “the vast majority” of ICE agents did a “noble and good job.”

In short, MAGAs are premature and half-assed.

Please vote country over party. This is no longer the Republican Party that long ago had some values that served democracy and would work with Democrats to make our nation great. Even if you don’t like the Harris/Walz team you can vote them out in 4 years but if Trump wins we may never get the chance to vote again. He told us that as we should believe him.

Democrats make our country great? How? When? I must have missed that…. I do see a declining power ridiculed by its enemies. I see a country $36 trillion in debt. I see a country run into the ground by unelected, unrepresentative bureaucrats. I see trillions wasted on a new green deal. I see a bunch of social fascists intent on telling Americans what to think, what to say, what to buy….

Funny the amnesia Demos have concerning Kammy. You simply hat Trump and look the other way in regards to immigration, crime, the economy, and foreign affairs. Remember Kammy ran for a year for President in 2020. The Demos did not like her back then and it’s easy to see why. She can’t run on the last four years of the most incompetent administration in a lifetime. Quite frankly she just isn’t very smart. So do you really think Repubs are gonna cast a ballot for Word Salad herself? Not me and you would never vote for a Repub.

But you voted for George Wallace, probably twice, which shows that you can vote for the person and not the party.

I confess to having voted for a Republican — not MAGA — candidate. Three, in fact: John Anderson, Duval SAO Melissa Nelson, and Nikki Haley.
I suspect you voted D many times, the last being for Wallace. After that, you went over to the far right GOP side..

Another reason Republicans are voting for Harris:
“According to independent nonprofit nonpartisan researchers, Trump’s policies on tariffs, deportations, and the Federal Reserve would, if put in action, seriously hike inflation, wipe out jobs, and slow U.S. production and economic growth.“ —New Republic

Sorry, the New Republic isn’t even a remotely credible periodical. Besides, only RINOs are voting for the social fascist party a/k/a Democrats.

How many of the 725,000 early Republican voters actually voted for Trump? Hundreds of thousands of Republicans will vote for common sense.
Trump’s transition team co-chair lunatic Howard Lutnick stated last evening on CNN that there is absolutely no vetting or even interviews with White House replacement staff and operatives. The only requirement is a red MAGA cap and a “referral from a referral who is known to the steering committee!”
Come on folks! We can do better than Trump and his collection of grifting stupids!
Republicans are America’s worst enemy!
Vote all Republicans out of office!
