In a county that is over 67% Democrat, it is nearly impossible for a Republican to win. Even Donald Trump in 2016 lost in Palm Beach County by 15% to Hillary. And Lake Worth commissioner, Herman Robinson, told someone recently, when she brought up the dismal turnout in local elections, that she should concentrate on gerrymandering!
That's what happened yesterday when Lori Berman, Democrat, won her election in a landslide for State Senate District 31.
When an incumbent has 96% more campaign contributions than an opponent as well as name recognition (she was in the Florida House for 8 years) and the Post endorsement, more than likely an opponent will crash and burn. Now we will see Berman for four years and probably eight.
Allen West and Brian Mast and a number of others say otherwise.
ReplyDeletePeople are pretty sick of the divisive and bigoted politics that today's GOP represents. Tami's allegiance to Trump did her in, whether you choose to acknowledge it or not.
Get ready for the midterms.
You know NOTHING about Tami Donnally. President Trump had NOTHING to do with Tami's defeat.
ReplyDeleteTami Donnally lost because this district is overwhelmingly Democrat, Period, The Dimms are reading 2018 victory into all the races that they win.
ReplyDeleteThis is another example of their misplaced confidence.
I just heard Herman Cain say that Republicans will retain the house in 18, by the way.
Who didn't know that Lori was going to win?
ReplyDeleteThe President is a Buffoon! Now he is trying to get us all killed. All he needs is a fiddle!
And you, @9:13, are a sorry disrespectful loser who has no clue. You're probably still a Crooked Hillary fan. LOL
ReplyDeletefinally figured it out.pb co is so democratic that we should know why its so crooked around here.bill and Hilary did good teaching these people with no minds of their own.also hope lw doesn't try to control gun rights on their own like others.imagine andy telling you what kinda gun you can have
ReplyDeleteIm a Democrat but did not vote for Berman. Most Democrats only vote along party lines.
ReplyDelete10.37 sounds like someone who will talk to others with an open mind thanks
ReplyDeleteI DO know Tami and she is a Trumpster all the way.
ReplyDeleteMost of us Republicans support Trump, but she didn't align herself with that as she campaigned...only what she would do for Florida.
ReplyDeleteOutside of this little Hamlet, nobody ever heard of Tami Donnally!
