We hide parties at first so you can compare every candidate with an open mind, and maybe find common ground where you least expected it. Reveal them any time with one tap.

“The legislature isn’t gonna wait for me to get older,” Sandlin said in comments reported by FloridaPolitics. “They haven’t waited for me to get older to [pass] ‘Don’t Say Gay’ in schools, to demonize students, demonize public school teachers. They haven’t waited until I’m older to gut the public school system in favor of private school vouchers. They haven’t waited until older to crack down on voting rights.”
