Let's see if Floridians have learned the lesson of voting based on the courts! We have a problem.

Red Tide Rick wants to appoint 3 justices to the FL Supreme Court on the day he leaves office!

We must not let that happen and the first step to doing so is to get ANDREW GILLUM elected!!

Vote vote vote vote vote vote vote! Vote for a Democrat so he can appoint the justices not Red Tide Rick. This is an abuse of power by Voldemort!

And punish him by voting for Nelson!

Then vote Democrat down ballot!

BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD START VOTING DEMOCRAT IN ORDER TO CONTROL THE COURTS!!!

See this article for more info about what’s going on!!

Today is the last day to register to vote. Post this link on social media.

Ask others to do the same. The more who vote the more likely we Democrats win!

Remember Dr Ford. Remember Merrick Garland.

Remember remember the 6th of November.

Vote By Mail ballots are coming now! Be sure to send yours back after voting for Gillum and Nelson!

Vote straight Dem!

I’ve been reading that thousands of Democratic ballots were unreturned in 2014. If you request a ballot by mail be sure to vote!

This 1 week delay is only for show! This is to limit the poor optics for the Reps going into Nov 6.

I hope I’m wrong and something comes of this.

Even if BK is confirmed, it's not all doom.

For all the talk about Kennedy being a moderate swing vote, i think he was a reliable right wing vote. While he voted with the left a few times, he voted with the right the majority. This is not a huge swing to the right.

Now, Clarence Thomas is 70. It’s possible he’ll be replaced by the next president. We must win in 2020. Samuel Alito is not far behind at age 68. There’s no guarantee he lasts much longer either.

RBG is an outlier with great genes. We must either win the Senate in 40’days and the WH in 2020, or hope she survives until 2021 and we win in 2020. Either way 2020 is our LAST CHANCE TO have any hope to shift the court.

We must win the Senate to block any nominations to the federal courts.

We just have to! We’ve got to hold the purple/red states. Then we have to pick up some combo of TN, TX, AZ, and NV. Let’s do this!

We need a national effort to get to Murkowski, Collins, Sasse

and others.

We need to pressure these senators like never before.

A national strike? Phone calls to their offices from across the nation?

BK’s refusal to support an FBI investigation is a glaring omission. He’s afraid of what Mark Judge will say! These GOP senators must hear from America!
