Will Democrats EVER be able to flip the legislature and governor's mansion? [View all]

I am a FL native and I’m shocked by the state GOP. It thwarts the will of the people whenever it can.

We’ve had 20 consecutive years of GOP rule in Tallahassee and I’m tired of it.

They hate public education, the environment, organized labor, immigration, sensible gun laws, citizen initiatives, and just about anything else that is part of a democracy.

When will the state party figure out how to win? This is demoralizing!
