Plantation Councilwoman Denise Horland, a far-left progressive Democrat, said she preferred New York City’s onerous response to the COVID-19 pandemic to life in Florida. Horland made the stunning declaration during a September 2021 trip to New York City. She took to social media to state she felt “safer” in New York City than “back home” in Plantation. Horland said she “happily” provided vaccination cards to visit public places.

In her Twitter post, Denise Horland wrote, “I am currently in NYC. We’ve (happily) had to be masked and show our vaccination cards at several restaurants, museums and theatre. No issues. NY positivity rate: 3.31%, FL 16.8% Sadly, we feel safer here than back home in FL.”

While Horland felt “safer” in NYC, numerous restaurants and small businesses went belly up. Former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo allowed seniors to die by the thousands in retirement homes and hospitals. Families were not allowed to comfort each other in person. But hey, at least Denise Horland felt “safer” when taking in a Broadway show or two.

Sure, Horland and her Democrat allies dislike Governor Ron DeSantis. But would any objective resident really say New York handled COVID-19 better than New York?

How does Denise Horland explain the mass exodus of New York residents and businesses to Florida?

Horland’s appreciation of New York’s COVID rules may explain her support of radical new laws for Plantation.

Horland is pushing a progressive agenda on Plantation businesses like a plastic straw ban, a ban on single use plastic containers and even forcing installation of electric vehicle charging stations.

Last month, Horland told the Sun-Sentinel she wants Plantation to hire a unelected, bureaucrat to run Plantation instead of a mayor.

Does Denise Horland and her staunch ally Nick Sortal really want to turn Plantation into New York City?

Someone should alert all the new Plantation residents who escaped from New York about Horland’s dangerous scheme.

Allen West’s diminutive Democrat challenger took to the Palm Beach airwaves this morning. Patrick Murphy,gave a lackluster performance on a WPTV public affairs program. When pressed for specific solutions to the nations problems, Murphy trotted out the stale liberal mantra–get out of Iraq/Afghanistan and cut the Department of Defense.

Murphy insisted Medicare was fine for the next twenty years. He said he would support restoration of the Medicare Advantage program which is extremely popular among Florida senior citizens. Murphy attacked the Paul Ryan plan, but he was non commital when it comes to Social Security means testing:

“I cannot say here whether I would means test or not…I would need to dive in and learn more”

Murphy said he would have voted for the Obama stimulus plan because it saved us from a “Great Depression”; Perhaps Murphy was confusing the stimulus plan and TARP.

Murphy said he would vote for raising the debt ceiling without corresponding spending cuts.

On Weinergate, Murphy said he was “discouraged” by Weiner’s behavior but he would wait for ethics investigation before calling for Weiner to step down.

Perhaps the twenty-eight year old Murphy didn’t get the memo from Pelosi and Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
