In the race for U.S. Senate, who would you vote for: Republican Rick Scott or Democrat Bill Nelson? StPetePolls_2018_GovSenate_Oct16.pdf
Rick Scott: 48.6%
Bill Nelson: 47.2%

Rick Scott seems to have been buoyed a little bit by a positive reaction from Floridians to his response to the latest hurricane to hit Florida. His numbers were especially positive in the panhandle, which was hard hit, and a Republican stronghold.
This is one of those potential GOP pickups that the Democrats can ill afford to give up. With the manner in which the Senate is made up, Democrats must continue to dominate purple states (like Florida) and still maintain some Jon Tester like red state Democratic Senators just to stay in the game.

Actual pokohantas descendent demanding Warren apologize.
Trump wins again.
Warren self inflicted wound. She fell on her tomahawk.
Nelson is below 50% for an incumbent. That means he's toast.
Scott, DeSantis hold lead I'm early voting.
