Lake Worth is not normal. In a normal city election, if an outwardly gay individual was running for office, he/she would have almost 100% of the gay community endorsing them.
 
This election was about politics. There is virtually no "right wing" in Lake Worth. So we are left with a super majority of liberal thinking people.

Of this group, you have main stream liberals and WAY to the left of them, we have the open borders people, the anti-police people, the raise chickens, goats and pigs in your back yard people, the protest any development and corporations at any cost, at any time, and at any price people, the keep Lake Worth poor and affordable for those who only live on government assistance and illegal aliens people, TWAC's, anarchists and communists.

In Lake Worth, the Palm Beach County Human Rights Council endorsed the straight guy over the gay guy. Who'd have thunk?

It is the far left group above who have made Lake Worth somewhat of a "world headquarters" for organizing and spreading their philosophy not through interaction with the community, but covertly and secretly undermining in ways that appear normal.

How did they get so many people out to vote for their candidates? Fear. It was and is a great motivator. "They are taking away your rights, your beach, your forest, your freedom, your house".

They talk about the lack of transparency and backroom deals of their opponent while doing a better job of concealing who they are and what they are planning. They enlist the Lynn Andersons, the Dennis Dorseys and Suzanne Squires' of the community. How bizarre, how bizarre.
