Marco Rubio received 725,916 votes. That is more than the combined votes received by Kendrick Meek and Jeff Greene. Meek received 375,896. Greene garnered 230,445 votes. Rubio received nearly 200,000 more votes.
To make maters worse: only 692,077 Democrats voted. Meek has not built up enough of support with Democratic voters to be a serious challenger to Rubio. This is reality. Kendrick Meek will not be the next junior Senator of Florida. I haven't even discussed the implications of Charlie Crist pulling Democratic support away from Meek.
I expect we will soon hear Team Meek once again brag about their brilliant Jim Davis voters strategy. Crist and Meek could split the Democratic vote and make Rubio's path to victory easier.
