16. Do you live in Florida? I do. Have for 33 years.

Gillum(not Gillium) was a bad candidate. And Nelson did nothing. Hardly campaigned.

Gillum embraced Bernie and he sank from that point. He thought he needed it to win the primary. Which in the end he did not. And the Shit Show he has become since then makes all the innuendo around his time as Tallahassee mayor seem plausible. And he still came within 20K of winning. Had we nominated the more moderate Gwen Graham she would be governor. Florida Democrats learned a lot in that race.

Obama won here both times. We use paper ballots. African Americans are the base of our party here.

If it is Bush/Gore tight we could get screwed. But if Biden wins by .5 percent or more he wins. And he will.
