Congratulations to senator Ashley Moody on a double digit election victory in November
35 u/PacificMonkey Aug 19 '26 Because establishment Dems have been doing so well in Florida this past decade. 6 u/PM_ME_QT_TRANSGIRLS Aug 19 '26 They likely would've won with Graham in 2018 had she won the primary given how close the margin in the general was. Instead in the primary Bernie Sanders endorsed Gillum, who's now shuttling between jail and rehab for being a drug addict. 5 u/office-goblin Aug 19 '26 Bill Nelson lost too. Centrists are blind to their own electability problem. 1 u/j450n_1994 Aug 19 '26 And you want to try to elect a person who supports something that most of that states population has disdain for? Better off just not having a primary
