It's going to be interesting to see how "America's most independent Senator" and Progressive Hero Gillum handle campaigning together.
Hand in hand. Sweeping reform to stagnant local Florida government and an independent approach to a polarized, ineffective congress is exactly what the doctor ordered. I can't put my finger on why (I think it's because how and the way he speaks) but Gillum feels as "old south" as it gets for me and he provides a fantastic, energetic contrast to the old dog in Nelson. A steady hand and a vibrant youth gives a best of both worlds vibe.
I can't say Gillum was my first choice but my GOD it feels good knowing I'm voting for true and through Floridians like myself. That is a massive bonus to me because at least I feel like I am voting for one of my peers unlike a Bush or Scott who were born, raised and/or educated elsewhere. Crist was born in PA but hell he lived in St. Pete since childhood. And you know what? That's all good to me
