Concerning "Consent of the Governed"

Q: What percentage of Floridians voted for incumbent Republican governor Rick Scott in yesterday's election?

A:  14.6%.

Of the remaining 85%:


  • 14.2% voted for Democratic challenger Charlie Crist.
  • 1.1% voted for Libertarian Challenger Adrian Wyllie.
  • 2/10ths of 1% voted for independent candidate Glenn Burkett.
  • 1/10th of 1% voted for independent candidate Farid Khavari.
  • Unkown numbers represented as 0% of the vote voted for various write-in candidates.
So:

  • 85.4% of Floridians did not affirm their consent to be governed by Rick Scott.
  • 69.8% of Floridians did not affirm their consent to be governed by anyone.
Just sayin' ...
