Plus One Automatic Democrat for Senate

Only Democrats are running for Rubio's Senate Seat from Florida. I am voting for Patrick Murphy. I got my Absentee Ballot in the mail today because this is the only way I vote given how I was treated in a "Red" area of Florida at the polls.

Anyone know what is happening with Sander's seat? While we are focused on the Presidential race, you cannot ignore Congress.

Or are you mistaking a Democratic primary ballot as being for November?
