Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

57+% in favor of overturning it and it stays. Tyrant of the minority.

needed 60% to pass what BS.

Good news is I bet that 3% won't exist in the next vote.

Problem is people keep moving there even when some die. Florida is a lost cause, we need to build a wall and just let it fall into the ocean.

Can we call the wall “America’s cock ring”….

And make them pay for it?

Send bill to Mar-A-Wallgo

It needs a back flow valve so the sewage doesn't come back up.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

That's a good point. Wouldn't even bother with a wall. Aqua man needs to commute too.

And yet, 56% voted to put Trump back in the white house. The guy who made such restrictive abortion laws possible in the first place. I just don't understand people.

Florida election is sus as hell. They had 95% reported by 8pm. Makes no sense.

Nah this shit hole has been making a hard right turn for a while.

When I voted today we put our ballots directly into electronic counters I can't imagine why it would take long

We do the same thing in Illinois and it still takes time for counties to report their results plus there's mail in and provisional ballots.

Failure of a state.
