My political allegiance tends to align with the Democrats. I register as a DEM; first registered in 1974 in Pinellas County FL. In my local elections, party affiliation holds less sway for me.
This election cycle, back in Spring, I met a 35 year old Haitian-born lawyer and GOP candidate for a Florida State Rep seat. Florida has 120 State rep seats. After meeting him, I vetted him and his GOP opponents thoroughly. He stood head and shoulders above the others. The DEMs have NO CHANCE of winning in this particular district. I decided to assist this young lawyer‘s primary campaign. He had run and lost in 2018. Ahead of the primary, I went out canvassing on Saturdays with his campaign team. He won his primary! This makes him a shoo-in tonight!
I have a non-election-related meeting tonight, 8pm - 9pm, then I plan on immediately heading over to a GOP gathering to share in the joy of my candidate’s victory!
