Gillum should have no chance. This guy is getting money from Soros and is endorsed by Bernie Sanders. I heard the quote and he wasn't talking about Gillum. Gillum is a tool. He wants open borders, abolish ice, $15 minimum wage, 50% increase in corporate tax on business, health care for illegal aliens, higher taxes, more regulation. Florida is doing great. We don't need this socialist moron in our state. Socialism has never worked. Putz.

“The last thing we need to do is to monkey this up by trying to embrace a socialist agenda with huge tax increases and bankrupting the state,” said DeSantis

_____________________________________________________________________-

Now, lets look at when other people have used the "Monkey" term, and see if this is FAKE OUTRAGE and trying to use identity politics to paint a candidate as racist (Which is part of one partys playbook every election):

"Democrats have been known to MONKEY AROUND with elections" Barack Obama September 4th 2008

"Donald Trump threw a MONKEY wrench with the wall" Chuck Schumer April 24th 2017

"No one has ever been allowed to MONKEY AROUND with our electoral system" Diane Feinsteign September 23rd 2016

(Tons more examples if needed, yet silence from those same people and media on people of a certain party using that term)

No win situation here.

I voted for DeSantis.

If DeSanits is racist, Gillum sounds even more so.

Plus he wants to take guns away...

The polls (and odds) gave DeSantis no chance. The media in South Florida pounded DeSantis and pushed and backed Gillum and it didn't work. The out of state money couldn't sway this one. Florida has rejected becoming the next California.

early afternoon exit polling is wrong about 100% of the time

sometimes they get the winner, when the democrat wins, but their accuracy is still way off

I am talking about the polls leading up to this election. They had Gillum with a 7 point lead (margin of error was 3.5%). DeSantis was never leading in any of the polls. There is a huge liberal bias in the polling. The Sun Sentinel today is whining about disenfranchisement, problems with the election process and all kinds of other excuses. Big money from out of state and the entire liberal media shilling for a socialist failed.
