Some Republicans Undecided about Trump, Rubio as they Arrive in FL

Longtime Republicans describe the race as a “show” or “disgusting” or “confusing.” It started with more than 15 candidates vying for the presidential nomination. For some, that meant having options. But for others, it was a cause for dysfunction. Vietnam vet Wohali Agatoli calls himself a religious conservative and a Ben Carson supporter. With the nontraditional candidate Donald Trump leading the pack and Carson out of the race, he’s unsure who to vote for.

“Everybody wants to come out head and shoulders about the rest", Agatoli said. "But they’re all playing the same game from a different angle.”

Senator Marcio Rubio will attempt to woo voters like Agatoli in Jacksonville tomorrow. Meanwhile, Trump will host a rally at the CFE Arena at UCF where he’s expected to outline part of his plan and slogan - to "Make American Great Again".
