BrianBoitano posted:I'd imagine Gillum helps Bill Nelson quite a bit, yeah? imagine those staying at home instead of having to vote for two up-ticket centrists, who now have at least one progressive to make it worth their whole i wouldn't be surprised if gillum does help nelson, nelson has been hillarying as hard as he can by playing it 'safe' and depressing the (D) vote as hard as much as humanly possible. nelson didn't have any credible primary challengers and there wasn't even the option to cast a useless protest vote or even write in AOC on my primary ballot. otoh, florida has an absolute shitton of old white people who live in gated communities marinading themselves in FOX news all day so maybe the match up against a black man will energize those voters. Gillum is also mayor of Tallahassee which has had a good amount of scandals on the city board and a higher than average property crime rate recently, expect to see those items flogged endlessly on right wing media in the coming months.

lol nytquote:Mr. Gillum edged Ms. Graham, a former North Florida congresswoman who finished second, and Mr. Levine, the former Miami Beach mayor who finished third after dropping nearly $30 million of his personal fortune into the campaign. Ms. Graham, a moderate, had been considered the favorite in a midterm year in which many Democratic women have fared well.

Michael Shure is on TYT right now framing the FL Gov race as Bernie Sanders vs Donald Trump. I didn't even think of it that way as I forgot the GOP nominee had that godawful Trump ad that he forced his family to participate in.

Wednesday FL primary coverage bingo! - Gillum FBI investigation - Graham must have made missteps because clearly she's the better candidate - Nothing at all about young voter turnout

Ramrod Hotshot posted:Anybody have the scoop on this FBI business basically Tallahassee has been getting gentrified to poo poo during Gillum's term (probably my one actual beef with him) and the FBI sent some guys in undercover to look at all the money getting tossed around The city manager resigned earlier this year for accepting FSU football tickets from a lobbyist (a very southern scandal) but afaik Gillum hasn't been implicated in anything yet It seems like the same sort of poo poo currently happening in basically every growing city in the nation so I can't imagine why the loving FBI picked Tallahassee of all places to do a corruption probe on https://www.tampabay.com/florida-po...llums-campaign/

I think they all punted on questions for actually legalizing marijuana and just mentioning how great it'd be to get the tax revenue from it, but all the efforts in the past have been public initiatives so whatever. They're all against school vouchers, private prisons/the prison-industrial complex, and had some pretty strong words about raising taxes on higher brackets given what politics in AZ are like. I was going to be happy with whoever won the primary.

That owns then, it all the candidates were leftwards enough to be progressives it means folks there shifted the gently caress outta the overton window. Hopefully it pays off in november

the worst of the development in Tallahassee is all around FSU and I saw similar nonsense at USF in Tampa so there's probably some truth to that. Wondering who's going to tallahassee to pay $1100 in rent every month when my sister's old place (currently being torn down for new construction) was $350 a month just two years back
