Jolly tells Cavuto why all eyes are on Florida’s CD 13 race: Obamacare battle, ground zero

The March 11 special election to see who takes Florida’s 13th Congressional district has become ground zero on a single issue — Obamacare — and may give a preview of what the 2014 midterm elections in November.

David Jolly, the political newcomer who is taking on Democrat Alex Sink, appeared on “Your World” Monday and discussed the race withFox News host Neil Cavuto. He reminded Cavuto that President Obama took the district in 2012, so it all comes down to the president’s signature piece of legislation.

As it was supposed to.

If the Republicans were serious about winning, they would run ringers to siphon Democrat votes.

Here’s a strategy. Push these small races so the Democrats can wear themselves out financially with “get out the vote” spending. It will drive up the prices of the precinct captains who ensure the votes. Soon elections will break the banks of the Democrats.

Apparently we won. You could not tell on FR though. This one we needed to win but interest in the race has been non existent.

Okay, conflicting reports!

Let me find an “announcement”, then...

[blueyon]

So does this mean Jolly is Jolly right now?

[Old Sarge]

Okay, this is from the Pinellas Supervisor of Elections:

Election returns:

As of this hour:

Jolly (R): 48.43%
Sink (Socialist): 46.56%
Overby (Libertine): 4.83%

According to the Florida SOS website all the precincts have been counted and Jolly (R) won by about a 3,500 vote margin 48% to 46%, which should be outside the margin for democrat shenanigans, I expect Fox to call the race soon.

So does this mean Jolly is Jolly right now?

And Sink has sunk....

[Jet Jaguar]

Found it. Well done.

[Palmetto Patriot]

Fox calls it for Jolly.

[Old Sarge]

BayNews9 (the local ABCDisney affiliate) just called it for Jolly.

Bttt

Good.

[Old Sarge]

HA! No bias on Wikipedia!

They're posting Sink as the new Representative!

Jolly by about 4000 votes......wow what a squeaker!

But he did win despite millions poured in and Bill Clinton’s campaigning with Sink.

I hope she’s gone down the ‘drain’ for good!

Hopefully a sign of good things to come.

Holy Shiite can someone not figure out a way to run Green Party candidates to balance out the damage done by death wish Libertarians?

EVERY STATE NEEDS Green candidates.

or communist party candidates

I'm serious folks. The main, legitimate, Party that would siphon votes off of the Democrat totals is the United States Marijuana Party. It is a legitimate Party formed in 2002.
