I'm kind of surprised that Luther Campbell actually did as well as he did. But I suppose having the local alternative newspaper manage and hype your campaign almost every day for the last couple months can actually convince some voters (1 in 10, actually) that you are ready to oversee over 27,000 county employees and a budget of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Thoughts? Comments? Wisecracks?

The young males I interviewed voted for Campbell. I am not surprised he came in so high, he was the protest vote.
I voted for Campbell. And I'm not so young anymore. And yes, he was the protest vote.
But the real protest vote were the 85 percent who stayed home.
I will vote for Gimenez now.
I hope most people who picked one of the non run-off candidates switch to Gimenez.
I hope they all don't just stay home out of protest.
I was surprised to learn I'm more of a minority than I ever dreamed. I voted for Khavari. To find this out, I had to Google "Miami Dade final election tally" because the Miami Herald Online didn't have it. Google brought me here. Excuse me while I smack myself aside of the head for not coming here in the first place. And for "throwing my vote away" as so many had warned. What a dumbf**k.
