Charlie Crist someone will start paying attention. He doesn't seem very concerned about it because he keeps doing the same thing which with inequity of vaccinations.

And since the governor of New York is under investigation because of nursing home death numbers, why isn't DeSantis under investigation? He acted like it was too confusing so the orange man who lived in the White House told him he doesn't have to worry about any past recording of nursing home deaths and can start at May 3rd after many had already died.

Does anyone really know what direction Crist would take? Is he still a democrat?
OTOH, Nikki Fried is focused and anyone putting fuel in their car in Florida has seen Nikki's name and face on the pump's inspection stamp. If name recognition alone isn't enough for voters, a quick look at her bio seals the deal.
This area, is looking to double it's population and isn't doing it by appealing to Democrats. We're already outnumbered by 3 to 1 (59k out of 242k) in Collier County and it looks to get worse. It seems that Florida's great plans for growth are to create enclaves like The Villages everywhere. There is no looking forward at the problems of potable water, environmental protections, nitrogen and phosphorus pollutants, invasive species, or rising seas to name a few.

He has close friends in the Republican party. Friends who probably should have been disbarred when he was governor.

I cannot support Crist, unless of course he does become our candidate. He's still an R as far as I'm concerned.

Crist began his political career as a Republican, serving in the Florida Senate from 1993 to 1999
