The Escambia County Democratic Party worked hard for Gay Valimont. We knocked on thousands of doors, and indeed, Escambia County went blue. Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, and Walton Counties would vote for Pol Pot if he ran as a Republican.

I did my canvassing knowing it was a long shot. But I cannot control the results, I can only control what actions I take, and I chose to fight. Shit on Florida all you want, and the state probably deserves some of it, but remember there are people fighting the good fight, even here.
