Florida going blue seems absolutely wild in light of recent political developments re desabtis etc etc

But Florida has traditionally had low voter turnout; it’s generally been the old white men and their cohort voting for crazy pseudo conservative rhetoric.

This time, all the women might vote on an issue instead of not voting or going along with whatever the belligerent men say.

Florida also has the Latino "ooga booga Democratic socialism!" mentality that drives them to vote for the strong-man who scares them to vote for him because they love a dictatorship that says it isn't a dictatorship.
