reednavy...........the missus got hers about 2 weeks ago, so you might want to look into it unless your planning on going to the polls!

No way in hell am I driving 600 miles to vote. I'll be calling the Elections Office tomorrow morning and get it straightened out. I will do what it takes to make sure Sink and Crist get my vote.

People need to pay attention to what Rick Scott is saying - and not saying - in this race.  I was talking to a friend who worked for the State who was thinking about voting for Scott (he usually votes the Republican ticket).  I don't know why any State employee would vote Scott for Governor, with his promise to reduce the number of state employees.  If a state worker votes for Scott, they must agree there are too many state employees.  The only logical thing for them to do is resign - and thus reduce the burden on state taxpayers.  To do otherwise is hypocritical and arrogant - thinking they are so important that "they" won't be part of the purge...

When I put it like that, he agreed to look into Scott's comments about the budget and State employees.  This knee-jerk "I'm a Republican so I'm voting for Scott" stuff is not in the longterm best interests of our state...

I'm a republican and I'm voting for Sink.  Scott is as corrupt as any I've seen.  It's hard to find an objective opinion on his actual policies because his side has spent so much money on ads and propaganda.

Florida has one of the lowest number of state workers per population.  And Scott wants to cut it even more.  Doesn't make sense.

What do you think the chances of Rick Scott winning?

The latest polling still has Scott in the lead. It will be a dark day in this wonderful state's history if that crook is elected governor.

The sad part about the polling is Sink is leading among 'registered' voters but Scott is ahead among 'likely' voters.

vicupstate

The lead between Sink and Scott has flipped back and forth several times.  All of the polling that I have seen in the last month, including the ones with Sink leading, have been 'likely voters' only. 

Based on an average of all polls taken, Sink has a 1.2% lead. 

This one is absolutely a toss-up.

Polls really mean nothing in the grand scheme of things, look how many were wrong in the primaries across the country.
