Local Republicans support Florida becoming its own country
SOUTHWEST Fla. – Should Florida break away from the United States and become its own country?
According to one polling company, a growing number of Southwest Florida Republicans support the idea. A growing number also believe President Trump did not lose the election.
The poll was commissioned by Victory Insights with offices in Naples. It reveals nearly 70% of SWFL Republicans believe Joe Biden won because of fraud.
Mike Sumbert of Lee County is among them.
“There was big fraud in the election if the people can’t see that. President Trump won this election,” he said.

One of England’s most coveted recruits, Ethan Price, wasn’t interested in the glitz and glamour of high-major college basketball.
Southern California and Georgia Tech were among the schools pursuing the 6-foot-10 Price, whose versatility was on full display with Great Britain’s U-18 national team at FIBA tournaments.
He could have enjoyed college life on the beach, too, at Florida Gulf Coast University.
But Price, a two-time league MVP who averaged 23.5 points, 12.4 rebounds, 2.7 blocked shots and was also a threat from 3-point range for his club team, was more interested in the rapport he developed with Eastern Washington University.
