(2,679 posts)When I moved to Winter Park back in 1994 it was deep deeper then the deepest red. Rural very repug.
It was red for Gore vs W and W vs Kerry. Went pink for the Obama years. Very light pink for the nightmare election in 2016. But we did flip the House seat. Put a dem in DC, Murphy. Big upset too. She decided to run very late in the election. Defeated a 20 year repug mica. She was voted most effective rookie congress person of her class. And she just won re-election.
This county went blue this election. Not the deep pretty blue of Orange county but not a very light blue either. Seminole County voted for Gillum and Nelson. Plus held the US Congress seat and took the state rep as well. That stuff never happens here, yet it did this time.
I will be working with the SemDems to make us a nice deep blue.
There were other counties that got bluer as well.
Sadly the racists aren't dying fast enough. You would have thought that with how much scott has tried to gut health care here more old people didn't die faster.
