The campaigns of Republican Gov. Rick Scott and Democratic challenger Charlie Crist each entered the final month of the gubernatorial race with millions of dollars available to spend, newly filed finance reports show.
As of October 3, the Scott campaign had raised $9,171,288, while spending $2,891,464, leaving it with nearly $6.3 million. The Crist campaign, meanwhile, had raised $8,587,405, while spending $4,610,536, leaving it with nearly $4 million, the reports filed Friday show.

Vote Libertarian. At least there is a slim chance they aren’t completely corrupt yet. These two are.
How about donating some of that money to the DEPT. OF CORRECTIONS since we haven’t had a raise in 10 years!!!!!!
I sick of all the commercials where one candidate or PAC only slings mud at the other candidate. Tell me why I should vote for you….not why I shouldnt vote for the other guy.
Glad there is a “mute” button on the remote. Most commercials are muted within the first 2 seconds.
All of us are hurting while they blow money like its nothing we the people are just a means for them to make their ends lol.
I am totally sick of politics.. All that money would be better spent by donating it to a deserving charity !
