There's no sugar coating this ugly truth. FYI, 15 of my 24 years of working on dem election campaigns were spent in Florida working under the election laws that were shredded in 2000 so I know the Florida election laws and the disputed territory like the back of my hand. I'm curious if you have any Florida dem election campaign experience?
