Jason—I know it’s not big news, but there have also been some major shakeups at Florida Poly—2 trustees have quit and one left after their term expired due to the hiring of a new president that has zero STEM background over a far superior candidate, and he just installed a crony he worked with at North Florida Community College with a divinity degree in a newly created VP position. Now desantis gets to appoint three new ones. All they are focused on or talk about is enrollment numbers…

Great Florida in Five. Wooho to U of F student journalists !!🐊
A note about write-in candidates. While the chart in the linked article correctly noted 2 races in Brevard, would like to point out the second race not listed was for Supervisor of Elections. Such a critical race with all GOP candidates.The primary is it with early voting finished and Election Day on Tues.The incumbent GOP, well-qualified and supported across all parties (despite many not being able to cast a vote) is going to win because his priority is election integrity. His Uber-MAGA opponent (supported by our “constitutional”/ I’m above the law sheriff) with his affiliated write-in candidate is a term-limited county commissioner with lots of nefarious stuff being exposed.Similar situation with the Tax Collector race listed, GOP incumbent, dedicated civil servant opposed by Uber-MAGA term-limited county commissioner with a friendly write-in. I do think the tide is turning on these MAGA’s…🌊🌊🌊 Still much work to do though !! Onward !✍️📲🚙💲🪧
Don't forget that luring Mosaic's HQ to Tampa was one of the accomplishments that Bob Buckhorn was most proud of. Not directly related to this story, but ....
