Some trivia on the Florida Hispanic vote from PolitiFact:
While 23 percent of the state’s population is Hispanic, the percentage of Hispanic registered voters is only 13.9 as of October 2012. That number climbed to 14.2 percent by the end of 2013. "If adjustments are made for the fact that the data is self-reported and doesn't include some voter registrations made years ago, the figure likely approaches 20 percent, but doesn't necessarily get all the way there."
When Crist was the Republican governor from 2007 to 2011, he opposed in-state tuition for the students known as Dreamers, who were brought to this country where they were young and have gone through U.S. schools and consider themselves as American as people born in the country. Now a Democrat, Crist supports giving them in-state tuition. Read more at the Sun Sentinel.
Governor Rick Scott's emphatic, zero-tolerance approach to illegal immigration is now changing. When Republican Rick Scott first ran for Florida governor in 2010, he pushed for tough immigration enforcement. Now, four years later, he is supporting a bill that would allow undocumented students living in Florida to pay in-state tuition rates to attend the state’s public colleges and universities. Voxxi 1
When it comes to illegal immigration, both candidates are hypocritical.

gov scott business got caught committing fraud--he will lose big time -we don't need criminals in office
340 hospitals, 130 surgery centers, and 550 home health locations in 38 states and two foreign countries--that's what he was part owner of. He was never indicted nor was he charged and he resigned. There were doctors who resigned who pulled this fraud. I would say that it is virtually impossible for one man to look after 285,000 employees. He was elected governor in spite of it all although it was under his watch. it's unfortunate that he had crooks in his organization...sort of like Obama.
excuses never get things done--if he cant handle or know what is going on in his business get out---excuses will not be excepted by him or you lynn---you should know this---he is criminal
But he is NOT a criminal..never been charged with anything. He is the governor. He is no more a criminal than OBAMA. To tell you the truth, I'm not that happy with either one of these candidates.
Hope he vetoes the 75 mph bill.
Let's Include ALL the Candidates!
We actually have a second choice!
He's been invited to the debate!

Why R & D are the same!
To all those who wave the Republican or Democrat flag, I withdraw my consent because I've come to the realization that democrats and republicans are a false-choice paradigm - a two–party dictatorship.

Weetha--he sounds damn good--pinch me! other than legalizing marijuana that is. :)
Rick Scott paid $300 million dollars on fine for stealing from medicare.
That makes him a criminal. No amount of you spinning in quicksand is going to change that.
Scott's former company ultimately admitted to fourteen felonies and agreed to pay the federal government over $600 million, which was the largest fraud settlement in US history; Scott however was not implicated and no charges were raised against him personally. Let's get it right/
