I made another copypasta to replace my old one for Bill Nelson

(Florida -- Bill Nelson)

>Three Term Senator, first elected in 2000 with 51%, Re-elected in 2006 with 60, Re-elected in 2012 with 55%

>Moderate Democrat, Trump Score: 39.3%

Potential Ways of Taking Him Down

According to the Issues:

>http://postonpolitics.blog.mypalmbeachpost.com/2018/02/02/palm-beach-bound-trump-oks-memo-release-bill-nelson-calls-it-huge-victory-for-vladimir-putin/

He believes the Russia LARP. Calls the memo a victory for Putin. He needs to be targeted as a deranged dumbass or conniving traitor who propagates the idiotic Russian conpsiracy theory, which will alienate him with moderates.

is probably going to face Rick Scott in the primaries, who is relatively popular in Florida

Demographically:

>GOP candidate needs to get turnout high in the Panhandle, other rural white areas in FL, and suburban areas by making multiple live appearances in those places

>GOP candidate needs to court the Cuban vote, and enough of the Puerto Rican vote so that it doesn’t make a difference

>GOP candidate needs to win over moderates and independents by beating Nelson in a debate, spending millions of dollars on ads and GOTV

what are your thoughts

It's more informational than the last one

conveys the scenario more comprehensively

use it

"In a hypothetical U.S. Senate matchup, Governor Rick Scott leads incumbent Senator Bill Nelson 44% to 34% with 22% undecided."

I know it's late but for whatever reason I woke up at this time of night

Another interesting factor is approval rating

Scott has seen his favorability go from 49 A 39 D (+10 pts) in November to 52 A 34 D (+18 pts).
Meanwhile Nelson has seen the reverse happen, with 45 A 22 D (+23 pts) in November to 40 A 27 D (+13 pts).
This means Rick Scott is now both more popular and (presumably as the Governor of the state) more recognizable than Bill Nelson. If he's considering a run, we may just chalk this in the "win" column.

Who is running for FL

hopefully Scott

YEA BOI LORD VOLDIMORT

Tfw I don't have a pic of Scott on my phone

you from Russia?

No

So American?

This was a meme name because I played arma 2 and WG Red dragon

BlueMidterm2018 seems to be trying to tell themselves that Nelson has a solid chance

"I think there are several factors that will help Nelson this year. As someone who spends his time between a bustling university town and a more suburban area, I have seen and met tons of new Puerto Rican arrivals. I’ve been trying to advertise that you can register to vote online because they are still settling in and registering to vote is not on the top of their list of priorities. Most people that I talk to, however, are fired up. Even my conservative Cuban family is planning on voting Democratic because they’re sick of the racism coming from the White House. With the governor of Puerto Rico vowing to campaign hard against the Republican Party, I think the effect will only get bigger."

hmmmm

@FLanon what are your thoughts

I think I've made my position on the Puerto Rico problem quite clear, the "conservative cuban family voting dem because racism" line is bullshit. Cubans, at least in my sphere of influence, are the most anti-nonwhite kind of people you could ever know. They don't give a fuck about Haiti and see the NFL players as a bunch of rat bastards. If I remember, they had one of the most pro-Trump ethnic demographics in the election.

so you think the guy claiming he comes from a conservative Cuban family is an outlier (or even making shit up?)

Trump's net approval in Florida is +5 (!) according to Morning Consult

Cubans that came here were probably the castizos

Definitely

The mestizos and indios and negros probably have it better in cuba now

or at least they have no one to blame but themselves now

Lot of Galician immigrants that went to Cuba and left when Castro came along

I don't see any right wing Cuban-Americans ever going against Trump because of racism

I honestly believe they're making that up

I think Cuba had some sort of unspoken caste or something to that effect

@FLanon I wouldn't put it past a redditfag to make something up for le upboats

I remember they were saying the same thing on r/politics during 2016. They said the Cubans wouldn't vote for Trump because of solidarity with Mexicans

HAHA

That's fucking hilarious, Cubans HATE mexicans
