Default Political poll

I'm glad to see this poll. Too many Republicans are deluding themselves, thinking there are not many Democrats here. Most are quiet because of the developer's authoritarian political control - most recently witnessed by the supression of free speech at the state budget signing at Lake Sumpter Landing. Sumter county law enforcement ordered protesting Democrats to move away from the main area of the square. I don't think they had the legal authority to make the protesters move. They were well behaved and simply holding signs to support their viewpoints. I'd love to see a good attorney step forward and explain why this was a violation of free speech!! This occurred on public property. I want law enforcement to cite the law these people were violating!!

Comments welcome. Would like to see if others agree with me. The morally bankrupt tactics of the developer and his minnions has to be challenged.
