I have never seen so many Democratic signs for Gillum and Nelson as I’ve seen in the past week. Even in areas I would think it’s 100% Repug. Polling place parking lot has been filled everyday since early voting started. Even on last election it wasn’t like that. Saw several houses next door to one another, one will have Gillum / Nelson signs and their neighbor has a Scott / DeSantis signs

Not optimistic this county will go “blue” but we just might give them a run for their money.

Oh, did I mention DeSantis lives in my county?

I'm with you: persistently determined, but not blinded by hope. Will celebrate when it happens. UTUSN Nov 2018 #9

A Facebook friend has been posting that hope is part of the resistance MaryMagdaline Nov 2018 #10
