Rick Scott just voted NO to IVF protections AGAIN. A fraud is always a fraud.
Floridians know he's lying when he says he'll protect IVF, and he just proved it AGAIN. He's trying to con Floridians, and in November we're going to vote him out.
Rick Scott has no core. He's a criminal and without a moral bone in his body.

(730 posts)Rick Scott's lead in Florida's Senate race continues to be narrow less than two months from the elections, according to the latest surveys released.
The most recent one, conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies and The Telegraph among 1,465 likely voters, shows the incumbent with a three percentage point lead over his Democratic contender, former Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, with Scott getting 44% of the support compared to her 41%.
The study is part of a broader trend seen in late August and early September, showing a closer race than before. A study by Emerson College and The Hill between September 3 and 5 showed Scott ahead by just 1 percentage point, 46% to 45%.
Others from this period have yielded similar result, just one showing a larger gap: conducted by Morning Consult among 3,182 likely voters, it shows Scott with 47% of the prospective votes, compared to Mucarsel-Powell's 42%.
Democrats in Florida face an uphill battle undoing a strengthened GOP hold in the state in recent years, particularly in an election where former President Trump is expected to add to GOP turnout in the state. Nevertheless, they are still confident they can win certain races ahead of November.
Mucarsel-Powell is increasing her efforts as the time to go to the polls gets closer, recently launching a new campaign on WhatsApp to reach voters and attack a sea of disinformation. The effort includes two channels on the messaging platform one in English and another in Spanish.

(9,606 posts)It must be the easiest thing on earth to be a Republican Politician. Every day, you receive a memo on how, who, or what to vote FOR or AGAINST, complete with a pocket edition of the talking points concerning those things.......
Think of all the free time you would have on your hands, like for Golf, Adultery, Grifting......
You also would not have to do grass roots campaigning, only a few dinners with Uber Wealthy Donors, and they make sure you are well taken care of financially for your campaign.....

(I'm from Denver and only familiar with our own Colorado UBER corrupt Republican Politicians and Corporate owners/CEO's, including Gorsuch's mother and her grifting as Head of the EPA under Reagan.)
If so, that would make him perfect for a Republican Senator, now wouldn't it.........

(2,928 posts)I loathe Rick The Dick Scott, aka Skeletor, aka, Governor Batboy, with the heat of 1000 suns. That fucking criminal should have been in jail for the Medicare fraud HCA (Hospital Corporation of America) committed when he was in charge. During his deposition, Dickhead took the 5th something like 40+ times. Thats NOT an innocent man.

The world would be a better place without him.
