It’s never over

It's never over. During my time in private law practice, time and time again I saw cases that were lost converted into wins at the last second when the 'winning' attorney wasn't paying attention.

Florida Governor: DeSantis defeats Gillum

Posted by William A. Jacobson on November 06, 2018 25 Comments

Andrew Gillum’s ties to anti-Israel, terrorist-glorifying Dream Defenders should be a disqualifier

Posted by William A. Jacobson on November 04, 2018 15 Comments

Democrat Mayor of Tallahassee Andrew Gillum has about an even shot of becoming Governor of Florida, if the polls are accurate. He might even be a slight favorite to defeat Republican Ron DeSantis. There's a lot politically not to like about Gillum -- he's on the far left of the Democratic Party, and that's saying a lot. His proposals could do serious damage to Florida. Yet in this age of Democrat anti-Trump rage, and a soft-spot for socialism in the party, Gillum just might pull it off.

A CNN poll has Florida Democrats up in the gubernatorial and Senate races, but I'm really shaking my head with the governor one. Somehow the CNN poll has Democratic nominee Andrew Gillum up by 12 points over Republican nominee Ron DeSantis while other polls show Gillum with maybe a 1 point lead.
