Charlie Crist, bit in the ass by his own paper ballot/recount laws! TRIED in 2010

to get him to listen! Just crickets.

This is what happens, when too many people don't like either candidate, and the democratic party in Florida, kept their own great dem Nan Rich DOWN for Charlie Crist. What a shame.

8. Crist is, and has always been a weathervane.

Whatever he thinks sells, he pushes.

Like Truman said, "When given the choice between a real Republican, and a fake Republican, they'll vote for the real Republican every time."

That's what happened.

Sink did better because she had repubs that would vote for her. They see Charlie as a traitor to them.

6. And, he gave us a very inadequate audit of 1-2% of our precincts, ballots against electronic totals

Thus verifying under 50% of the vote. So the audit next week, yes he also gave us a POST certification audit, will just be a dog and pony show.

It is what it is.....we tried in 2007 and this was the best we could get out of Charlie.


Sorry Charlie.

in S. Florida, where she was from. Maybe he should have picked her as a running mate, instead of a party hack who was never in office? This was all absurd to watch!

Don't like Charlie Crist. They mostly don't like him because he has changed parties now twice to go with the flow. They don't trust him.
