10. Florida's supreme court is mostly made up of Democrats.
However, at least one of them has way too many ties with real estate interests and might as well be a Republican on those issues. All too common in Florida to have judges and lawyers mixed up with lawfirms that would love to use local government to facilitate development. Buddy Dyer is not an exception. Old Guard shit.

8. Will Bush take it to US Supreme court as his brother did in 2000
Florida Supreme Court had it right back in 2000 when they said count the votes. Bush* somehow was able to petition the US Supreme Court and convince them he had been "irrepairably harmed" and got a stay to halt the vote counting. How he possibly could have been "irrepairably harmed" is beyond belief. The votes had not been counted or certified so no more harm could have been done to Bush* than to Gore. In fact how he even got "Legal Standing" is a complete mystery. If anyone at all suffered real harm it was the voters themselves.

11. Just heard him on t.v.
He will respect the court's decision and obey the rule of law.

Don't you get the impression that he knows that shit is about to hit the fan.
