I assume they’re trying to take this off the ballot because they know it’s going to increase turnout for the Dems. The majority of Floridians are not down with the abortion ban.
They can’t take it off the ballot, as it had way, way more than the required signatures, but they can intimidate every person who signed it into not voting by sending cops to their home.
Somebody leaked his plans to put up hotels and pickle ball courts, etc. in state parks and people took that personally, especially because they were no-bid contracts. Basically everyone told DeSantis to fuck off with this plan, which he tried to distance himself from while simultaneously firing the whistleblower.
I live in colombia and it’s the same here. I ride by a pickleball court almost daily and it’s always retirees playing. Never seen a young person playing.

Actually, this can be good for the Republicans. The pro-life crowd is a minority, but also the biggest, most reliable single-issue voting block.
Having it as a ballot initiative lets pro-choice Republicans vote to end the ban while the GOP still panders to the pro-life voters.

But it’s Pickle Ball courts that galvanize us. So odd.
That guy is an ecological disaster in control of a fuckload of land. I hope he dies and Floridians get a clue to make better choices.
What’s going on with PBCs!? Over on the other side of the slab the younger generation loves the game and the older set hate the noise.

That only makes sense if the “older generation” is the silent/greatest generation because 95% of people I see playing pickle ball are baby boomers.
