    Well I don’t approve of either Rubio or Scott as Fla Senators. A disgrace in their voting record.

    Most who live in Florida know that the Jacksonville area is highly Republican and that, therefore, the poll numbers are ridiculously skewed. I can tell you that I, for one, never received a phone call polling me about the Senators’ despicable voting records in this state, but then I live in a little blue dot surrounded by a red sea of voters in Florida. My only hope is that Floridians will not suddenly have amnesia regarding the Senators’ votes in the impeachment hearings; they will remember that only Mitt Romney had the moral courage to see the Truth when it was in front of him and act accordingly; and that this is not a Super Bowl game because our entire country and everything it has ever stood for is at stake here.

    Republicans are USELESS SHEOPLE in the fight to restore individual liberty and inalienable rights. They were bad before but they are essentially democrats now as the Party of Trump.

    Why should they have the power to take away your right to vote? Impeach in November if you don’t like your president. Your Senators gave you back your rights.

    In light of poor college education and indoctrination by left-leaning professors, we believe colleges should be responsible for unpaid student loans. Please address this concern.

    I went to this site hoping to hear that our voting registrations had been cleaned up and that something was going to be done about illegal voters, snow bird voting, and the voter corruption that we have had during pass elections. You know it was a big problem in 2016 and will be a bigger problem in 2020. We need accountability in our voter districts.
