(3,626 posts)48. I'm in a red county in Florida. (shudder)
But I have a friend who works her ass off for the Dems here. She told me that the judges on our ballot were all appointed by Democrats and, of course, if they were booted, our creepy Repig governor Voldemort and legislature would appoint Repigs to replace them. So I voted to retain. Also, my friend said to vote 'no' on each referendum. I've always found the wording on these things misleading, to be charitable, and I normally try to muddle through. But I figured, why waste my time(!) so I voted no on all of them. (Rachel had a segment on how long and confusing the Florida ballot was this year, deliberately formulated to discourage voters and to hold up lines.) I mailed mine a week ago.
