Republican David Jolly narrowly defeated Democrat Alex Sink on Tuesday in a Tampa-area House race largely seen as a critical test for ObamaCare.

With nearly 100 percent of the vote counted, Jolly had 48.5 percent of the vote to Sink's 46.7 percent. Libertarian Lucas Overby had 4.8 percent.

Not as big of a difference in vote totals as one would hope. I understand that it's Florida, so lots of retirees, but still, one would have hoped that the O'care issue would have been a larger difference.

Perhaps this points to the level of fraud that is out there?

  Almost two percent of the vote is not a small margin in the Tampa Bay area, not for a Republican. the have trouble in the region. Sorta like Miami.

    But still, I would have thought that there was more disdain for D's out there.

      Not in Florida. They are relatively moderate. Theor only real fault as far as Fl is concerned is vboting for ObamaCare.
