And if you cut anyone out of your life over politics you have a negative impact on whatever it is you support. Seriously, you could donate a million dollars to the RNC and man phone lines for them and you would not come close to the benefit you do for them by cutting Republicans out of your life over politics.

Okay MSNBC just called it as well.

But they've also called West Virginia, and it's staying blue!

If Florida goes Republican in both statewide races I have to assume this is 2016 all over again. Almost every poll had the Dems up by a point or two.


It really is incredible how even Florida always is despite such diverse demographics

People continue to underestimate JEB's everlasting influence there. He was the best governor in the state's history, and moderates aren't going to forget the letter next to his name.

Every single DeSantis ad was literally either pure anti-Gillum or look how much I support Trump.

He ran a bafflingly terrible campaign, which is why its so wild hes ahead.

"Just a quick note on the world of polling accuracy: If Republicans win the Florida Senate and gubernatorial contests, thatll be a surprise to anyone who saw todays final NBC/Marist poll. It had the Democrats winning each race by 5 points, although the polling averages were a bit closer. But while pollsters can argue about margins of error and such, if a variety of other races break for Republicans, expect these Florida elections to be held up as more proof that the polls are missing out on undercover Republican voters."

I don't really believe your parents are evil

it just frustrates me when people who SHOULD be good people, end up supporting an agenda that is anything but, and even when it's through ignorance or through apathy it's no excuse to me - ignorance and apathy are anti-virtues for me, not something that makes a person bad in their own right, but a failure of a person attempting to be good

I have this frustration with my grandparents, who are kind and gentle people who I love a lot but they trust the republican party a lot and even in 2018 I can't pry them away from this, despite the fact that it doesn't seem to serve their interests at all, being that they're pro nationalized healthcare, pro LGBT rights, pro environment, and anti-fascism and white supremacy (although they have bought hook line and sinker for the scary-immigrants vibe going on right now which sucks)

oh, i absolutely agree. it is supremely frustrating and troubling. they accept a transgender child without hesitation, full on support, among other really great things that they've done throughout their lives. but they continue to support an administration that is trying to remove trans discrimination protections. among other inconsistencies.

it's mind boggling and any attempt to discuss it just leads to them shutting off, no matter how it's approached.

they aren't bad people they're just...old and stuck in their ways
