Florida gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum (D) announced he was withdrawing his concession after the state began a recount in the extremely tight governor race on Saturday.
“I am replacing my earlier concession with an unapologetic and uncompromised call to count every vote,” Gillum tweeted.

The Democrat had conceded the race to Republican opponent Ron DeSantis late Tuesday. “We didn’t win it tonight,” he told his supporters.
However, as the vote gap between the two candidates continued to shrink throughout the week, Gillum’s campaign said it was ready for “any outcome,” including a recount.
DeSantis is ahead of Gillum by 0.41 percentage points. A margin of 0.5 percent or less triggers a recount in Florida. There will also be a recount for the similarly tight Senate race between Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL) and Republican challenger Rick Scott.
I love/loathe the vision of Agolf sitting in his krusty ‘shroom boxers, grubbing on cheeseburgers and watching -with blood pressure pounding- Fox report on the ‘stolen’ election, while all the humans are over at the somber centennial paying just respects to the fallen who gave their all.
Someday, justice…
An awakened citizenry can change things!
Please stay WOKE!
Count Every Vote!
As he should, if just to make DeRacist squirm
The election is over only after every vote is counted.
