Independent Florida State Senator Jason Pizzo Will Run for Governor Next Year

On May 9, Florida State Senator Jason Pizzo, who is an independent, said he will run for Governor next year. See this story.

He can get on the November 2026 ballot simply by paying a filing fee. Florida elimated mandatory ballot access petitions (except for independent presidential candidates) in 1998, by a vote of the people. Previously, he would have needed a petition of 3% of the registered voters, which nowadays would be over 400,000 signatures.

Florida puts the nominees of major parties at the top of the ballot, followed by minor party nominees, and independent candidates are listed last. Independent candidates in Florida have the ballot label “NPA”.

The last time Florida elected a Governor who was neither a Democratic nor a Republican nominee was 1916, when the Prohibition Party nominee, Sidney J.. Catts, won. Back then Florida didn’t print party labels on the general election ballot.

    Did Florida go dry?

  2. According to a quick web search Florida went dry on December 9, 1918.

  3. Here’s a history trivia question:

    When the Volstead Act was passed in 1919, what place in the US was exempt from Prohibition?

  4. How many trump plots to kill JD Vance and other trump stooges/hacks in Degenerate City ???

    FL Fee $$$ to be guv candidate ???

  6. Some of you totally don’t get AZ. AZ’s analysis is just a parody of how absurd the spin of the fake news articles in AZ’s link. AZ’s commentary on those articles just illustrates how absurd they are by making them even more absurd – a rhetorical technique known as reductio ad absurdum.

  7. The “rule of law” has become whatever the two fascist political parties agree does not threaten their power. A republic sustained by free democratic processes was gradually abolished by both parties in collusion over the last 100 years. The result is the present fascist police state with only an ornamental facade of democracy.

  9. If we lived in a fascist police state, D Frank Robinson would have been executed or in a concentration camp a while ago. Fascist police states don’t allow such harsh public criticism of their leadership.

  11. It looks like I was banned a week ago first at the independent political report and then the third party watch . There was no warning and no explanation. All attempts to ask why , what policy I violated, whether or how I can fix it or why I am being discriminated against simply go into a black hole and there is still no explanation. Maybe some of you can help to find out for me?

  12. Habibi’s mom has got it going on

    She’s everything I need and everything I want

    Nuna can’t you see, you’re just not the girl for me

    I know it might be wrong, but I’m in love with Habibi’s Mom

  13. How many $$$ to start a website ??? –

    esp for BAN troll morons — to attack each other for public entertainment —

    like watching olde Three Stooges short movies and New Age scary horror movies

  14. Here is one of the two comments that for me banned, if that’s what did it. It was submitted at ipr on May 3 and was either never approved or retroactively removed. It is as of now still posted at third party watch submitted May 4. On the article titled Nekhaila: full collapse of LNC is potentially imminent.

    The profanity is indeed most unprofessional and disturbing. Such degenerate language should not be permitted in public, much less in the leadership of a party. Shame on them.

    It’s certainly no surprise that a party built on the evil ideology of unchecked capitalist greed and unrestrained moral, social, and cultural degeneracy of any and all kinds has fallen into financial bankruptcy. At independent political report, there various supporters are exchanging (as yet unproven) allegations of mismanagement and embezzlement against their various leaders, current as well as former. While it’s no concern of mine which of them if any are guilty, it’s likewise no surprise if some of them are.

    This is yet another example of why the evil libertarian ideology must be rejected in all its aspects – social as well as economic. What your country most desperately lacks is a moral party which is the opposite of the libertarians across the board on social and economic issues, standing for economic fairness and traditional family values very strongly enforced by government.

    If there is any area to agree with libertarians about, it’s only on a noninterventionist foreign policy, mainly because your country is not a positive force by any means on the world stage.

  15. The other comment at the ipr which came just before the apparent ban was on a discussion about assisted suicide.

    https://independentpoliticalreport.com/2025/04/new-york-conservatives-denounce-assisted-suicide-bill/

    On April 30 I said:

    They make a good point. Death panels are certain to follow.

    On May 3 Arthur Torrey said:

    “agree, but they have it backwards… Why should the state be saying a person CAN’T request aid in dying, as is currently the case?

    Who owns you? If one has the right to dispose of property you own, including by destroying it (albeit with restrictions like not endangering others, pollution, etc.) and you own yourself, why can’t you destroy your own property?”

    I attempted to reply later the same day but my reply was not accepted.

    I said Allah owns us, and He has not given us permission to destroy His property.

    I don’t save submitted comments since I only have a rather outdated phone but ironically other people made the points I was trying to make in the rest of my comment about a week later:

    The people “requesting” “assisted suicide” are dependent on caregivers and easily manipulated into making such “requests.”

    But nonetheless, I was not allowed to post that or anything else there ever since. Everything I’ve tried to post since has been to try to clarify what happened, resubmit acceptable versions, find out what rules my comments broke, refer to their written policies, even get clarification as to whether I am in fact banned – no matter, none of them were ever posted.

  16. Meanwhile, I was still allowed to comment at third party watch at that time and posted one of the two comments which were not approved at the ipr as I said, plus at

    https://thirdpartywatch.com/2025/05/05/debate-on-abortion/

    I was allowed to comment as recently as May 5, which was my last comment there.

    Pat Jones said:

    “Posted on a recent discussion here: “However, its vital we get back to the understanding that all healthcare decisions should be between the patient/parents and doctors, not the government.
    Abortion, […] , etc.”

    Abortion is not a “healthcare decision.” It’s a cold blooded conspiracy between a woman and a hired killer grotesquely masquerading as a “doctor” to murder her child or in some cases children. While I would eliminate the vast majority of government if it were up to me,that’s something which should absolutely be the function of government to prosecute, punish, and where possible prevent.

    A fetus is a baby, pure and simple. He or she is clearly alive – past a very early development stage, breathing, heartbeat, brainwaves, etc. He or she is a separate individual with unique DNA and, past very early development, his or her own organs and limbs – not, e.g., a tumor, diseased body part, excess fat to be liposuctioned, hair or nails to be cut, etc. He or she is clearly human, not some other species – human pattern DNA is unique. Of course, a fetus depends on his mother to survive; so does a newborn.

    Abortion is not killing in self defense or punishment for crime. Even when the child’s father is a rapist, that’s not the child’s fault. In most cases, however, the mother helped conceive the child willingly or negligently. If you invite guests knowing a snowstorm that will block all roads out for the next six or nine months is coming or plausible, you have a duty not to throw them out in the snow to die. Even if a kidnapper smuggles a child onto your property ahead of such a storm without your knowledge or permission, at the very least such a duty exists as to the innocent child, even if not to the criminal. The child didn’t choose to trespass on your property.

    The only time it’s even a question is when there are insufficient provisions for you and the child to both survive, and in the case where it’s your own child, we generally don’t think well of mothers who save themselves at the expense of their children. Most mothers would sacrifice their lives for their children as a matter of course.

    “If you don’t want an abortion, don’t have an abortion”

    If you don’t want genocide, don’t commit genocide. If you don’t want ritual child sacrifice, don’t commit ritual child sacrifice. If you don’t want cannibalism, don’t eat people. Sorry, that’s not acceptable, as I hope my examples illustrate.

    Abortion is not a personal choice. It’s a holocaust of baby murdering and corpse defilement. When confronted with graphic evidence of what abortion actually looks like, most people rightly recoil in horror, including those who consider themselves “pro choice” on abortion. That’s why Randall Terry runs for President, and why I donate to him, as I have to operation rescue for decades – it forces television stations to show these image’s, which they otherwise refuse.

    More recently, the libertarians eliminated their platform abortion plank, and in another comment here I saw that there was some consideration of merging the libertarians and constitution party .

    I’m sorry, but it’s an irreconcilable difference.

    Suppose Nazi Germany was public about the holocaust and allowed open multiparty elections. How would you feel about a party that took no position on genocide? Or, suppose the “personal choice” of “abortion healthcare” was legalized into the fourth, fifth and sixth trimesters, i.e. babies after birth. Would you be comfortable if your party took no position on it? I would not, to say the least.

    Abortion is an irreconcilable difference, and there can be no ignoring it or sweeping it under the rug. Any party, candidate, or non single issue political group that does not support fetal personhood doesn’t deserve support.”

    I replied:

    I agree with everything you said about abortion. I disagree with “…. I would eliminate the vast majority of government if it were up to me,” although that isn’t the topic of this particular discussion. From my vantage point, your country’s government is already far too laissez faire across the board on domestic issues (albeit far too involved in international affairs, including those far from its own borders).

    I would especially like to second your point, that parents who are fit to be such would give up their lives without a moment’s hesitation to save the lives of their children.

    I did not attempt to comment at the tpw again for 4-5 days.

  17. On or about May 9 I tried to comment at TPW again. I think there may have been 3 attempts but I can remember the content of 2.

    One was on that same discussion.

    The jist of my comment was that Pat Jones project of making arguments about abortion which do not rely on faith or emotion is a fool’s errand. The godless libertarians and other infidels will always tie logic into Gordian slipknots, no matter how implausible, to justify their sinful desires and irresponsibility or bloodlust.

    Those knots can only be cut with the sword of Allah as they are forced to submit through physical jihad at the point of a sword. In the end we must all submit to Allah, even if it is by being sent to Jaheem (hell), so true mercy is to force infidels to submit to Allah before it comes to that.

    “Obviously not seeing the comments not allowed cannot absolutely judge but can say this: I think you are doing a good job. I used to love IPR and the articles there are still very good but the comments section is a cesspool beyond what it has ever been, and I am frankly shocked at how bad it is at times. Even though I like the articles, I never visit any longer. This is the site I look to for this kind of content. I know good advice is never to read comments, but often there can be great insight in comments, and if I have to avoid comments, I avoid the site.”

    Pat Jones replied April 30:

    “Independent political report is now just as moderated as this site.”

    What I tried to say was even more so, at least in my recent experience, but of course that was before none of my comments are accepted anymore at TPW either, as of those and any subsequent comments.

  18. Of course it’s possible that the discrimination had nothing at all to do with the content of those comments. Perhaps George Phillies discriminated against me because I am a woman, or a foreigner, or a Muslimah, or an Arab, or from Africa, or all or some of these things, or because I must preserve my privacy because I live in a country which has experienced regime change in recent years and might again, and there’s no way to predict what public statements might have what consequences or when. Perhaps some people could ask him, and keep asking him.

    May he never have a moment’s peace as long as he lives, unless he repents and allows the truth of Allah to be spoken!

  19. Happy mother’s day to Habibi’s Mom and all moms! I hope George from Philly gets trampled and eaten alive by pigs!

  20. From what I can tell the Phillies censorship meter corresponds to his menstrual cycle and how well the tampons are working and stuff like that. Just wait a few days weeks or months and he will chill out some. Or just don’t even go to his sites. He’s definitely a communist control freak.

  21. Allah Akhbar! I declare fatwa on George Phillies!

  22. Turd Potty Watch is just a circle jerk of communism and retardedness led by censorship king Phillies.

  23. Donald Trump is the name of the great Nordic God
    Who will protect our blood
    And protect our sod
    And he’s making America great again
    Because he’s a member of the Ku Klux Klan!

  24. +1 on happy mother’s day to all mom’s, don’t forget to help support single mom’s y’all!!!

  25. Whether Jason Pizzo can take away enough voters from the GOP candidate to held elect a Democrat remains to be seen.

  26. Mad King George Phillies is showing no love to mom’s on mother’s day. What an ass.

  27. No, plus he’s a big fan of fascist Ukraine which goes with his views about free speech.

  28. How many monarchs wanting NOOOO opposition –

    tyrants Trump / Putin / Xi / Phillies / etc ???

    How many websites opposing ALL tyrants ???
