I want to congratulate @AndrewGillum. The truth is after 20 years of one-party rule, Florida simply can’t afford another Republican governor. That’s why I’ve pledged to do everything I can to help Mayor Gillum defeat DeSantis in November. Please join us in moving Florida forward.

You literally used the phrase "steal a seat" to describe a valid canvass of the ballots.
Steel your spine, Senator. Stop auditioning to be Lil' Trump, and try defending our democracy, instead.
When did I ask anyone to stop counting? And how is criticizing repeated election failures by same election official a fight to stop vote counting?
Why can’t #BrowardCounty elections do what 65 of 67 counties did, count all votes in timely way & in compliance with #Florida law?

When I told President @JoeBiden that my husband Steve had been diagnosed with prostate cancer, he immediately replied, “What can I do to help?” That is the person he is - kind, decent, caring. So sad to hear that he is now battling the same cancer. Sending my love and prayers.
