I’ve seen more than a few posts about “not-so-secret-support by Republicans helped Crist win Broward” on Facebook. While I have no proof, common sense would dictate that Crist retained the quiet support of some Republicans. Those Republicans should be asked about this support. (While you’re at it, ask how many of you voted for Charlie when he ran for governor?)
But to think Crist “won” Broward due to secret GOP support is baloney. Do you think this secret support outweighed the support of Diane Glasser or Ari Porth?
Many democrats were never going to vote for Kendrick Meek. Crist knew this; that’s why he spent months courting Broward Democrat leaders.
Charlie Crist won Kings Point. I think I was the only Republican at that polling place. Every voter list I saw had Crist’s name on it. I never heard Meek mentioned once. I was the only Republican in the room. FYI, I voted for Rubio.
