@ Josh Jones
Mr. Jones I applaud Mr. West for taking the time to go out and vote it shows he cares about his party. I may not like your party affiliation but I admire you going out and voting.
@Nick West
Knowing for certain that your Libertarian candidate (Jo Jorgensen) has no chance of winning, why is it that you vote Libertarian?
“47.63% of voters were Republicans, 35.45 were Democrats and 15.41% had no party affiliations.”
I guess my Libertarian Party of Florida is no longer a party? I voted, i could even live with “other or NPA” but don’t discount third parties.
I pray that I am able to make the same decisions like my fellow Americans before me, to make any and all sacrifices to keep our freedoms for our children’s sake. Freedom is something we can loose very quickly. Even so now than in times past. I thank my Lord Jesus Christ for being born in such a great country as this. Get out and vote, many have died so you can have that right!
We were nearby so went to the library at PSC and took all of 15 minutes from parking lot to vote and back in the truck.
Excellent handling of all voters and a very smooth operation.
Thanks to ALL who volunteer and who are on staff of Supervisor of Elections.
God Bless this United States of America.
Impressive! Thanks for the stats!
