The News Press (Ft Myers) had reported that he had promised an extra
$40 million for a "dyke".

Then it was pointed out that it was just a typo.

It was interesting that 40% of the people polled in Florida did not
know who Bill Nelson was. He is the long time incumbent senator Scott
is likely to challenge next year.
I have noticed that Nelson has an internet blitz going, trying to tell
us all the wonderful things he did during Irma.
