Regarding Florida: Isn't this same Congressional seat up again in November? Will Sink run again?

Jolly won't have a long incumbency, won't be entrenched, and maybe can embarrass himself enough -- even by Florida standards? -- with public utterances, etc., and can maybe be effectively run against again in the fall?

Will Sink try it again? Someone else in the wings?

Will enough heads get pulled from out of asses, on the get-out-the-vote front?

Dont know if Sink will try again. And Jolly will probably keep quiet until Nov... cant see him rocking the boat or doing something stupid.

That the Democrats would have wanted the seat. It was an easy seat that could have helped in November with us only needing 17 instead of 18…..UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sooooooooo pissed off I could spit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know you haven't seem me this way, but I am steaming mad.

And the turnout might be slightly better with a Governors race on ballot. Scott still pretty unpopular...that might get enough turnout to boost Sink.
