Rick Scott says to vote early, because it could affect another hurricane

Florida’s junior senator wants you to vote early.

After all, he says, hurricane season isn’t over yet.

During an interview with Clay & BuckUS Senator Rick Scott urged listeners to “look at these storms that we’ve had, and what if we have another storm on November 4th? What’s going to happen? You don’t want to take a chance.”

Scott, who has a margin of error against the Democrat Debbie Mucarsel-Powell in the surveys published by the University of North Florida i Redfield and Wiltonhe continued to stress the importance of “getting our votes out.”

“We’ve had horrible storms on the West Coast. Will these people be able to vote? They’ve lost their homes. They might have had to move out of state to find a place to live. So we have to work to get everyone who they’re here,” Scott added.

Scott estimated he lost “25,000 net votes” in his 2018 election against Bill Nelson because a storm hit the Panhandle, and he seems worried that history will repeat itself here.

“If your house is destroyed and you’re in another state, that’s not the first thing you’re thinking about is, ‘Boy, I’ve got to get this vote.'” So we have to maximize our Republican vote because we have a lot of good people who have just been devastated.”
