“I assume this is an election for a vacancy — does Jolly have to re-run in November?”

If he does, it just goes to show what an incredibly stupid Nation we live in to piss away hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars just to do it all over again in 8 months. One would think the Florida Assembly could have voted to delay the special election until the general election.

You're right! They could have just re-written the State Constitution! /S

You obviously have a great point, but I think it might also go to show just how powerful incumbency is. They may think winning now will make it much more likely in the fall (if that is what is going to happen).
