Matt Gaetz Reelected To Congressional Seat

November 4, 2020

Republican Matt Gaetz was reelected to Congress Tuesday.

With about 65% of the vote, Gaetz handily defeated Democratic challenger Phil Ehr and NPA candidate Albert Oram.

“From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank the great people of Northwest Florida for the this overwhelming election win tonight,” Gaetz said Tuesday evening. “It’s always special to win an election and receive a positive performance review from my bosses,  the voters of this great district.”

“For the last 10 years, it’s just been the honor of my life to serve this community in one capacity or another in representative government,” he continued. “And I am deeply, deeply thankful to everyone for their confidence and support.”

    REGARDING:
    “His opponent kept advertising about the war 30 years ago and his family. Not sure what that has to do with anything.”

    Yes, many don’t understand. He was saying he had served this nation with honor. Risking his life for our nation. His opponent served as a lapdog for outgoing President Trump, a man without honor. Gaetz faithfully repeated his many lies and justified his crimes.

    David for better people

    Ms. Bryant, what di Matt Gaetz do that’s so wrong in your book? He’s been a pretty good representative for this area for the most part. His biggest issue seems to be that he can’t make Everyone happy which is the very reason he’s been elected. He has to worry about ALL of his voters and the outer fringes will have to deal with that. Needs of the many always outweigh the needs of the few….or the one!(Star Trek quote…lol)

    Last I heard, Rusty, EVERYONE has a first amendment right to express their opinion, even if it differs from yours.

    Mr. Shakleford – Yes, the people haven spoken and one third did not want Gaetz. Your response is typical of the us vs. them…if you don’t like it move. Guess what, that’s not the way it works.

    Ms.Bryant- Now that the people have spoken it’s clear they want Mr. Gaetz to represent them here in NW Florida. Since you appear in this public setting to be a scorned woman a suggestion might be for you to hang with others that think more like you do so you may have peace. Maybe you should…MOVE!
