Surprised that so many people picked the competent authoritarian that has done so much damage to Florida (such as requiring bloggers to register with the state, punishing companies for disagreeing, changing the school curriculum completely), over than a lunatic who in all likelihood would be too incompetent to get anything through Congress.
Mastriano has most of the negatives of DeSantis cranked up to another level. If his SOS proposal passed through then it's possible that another statewide Dem wouldn't have won because of disputed fraud. This could've ended up having long lasting impacts on the state if the courts don't intervene.
