Far right Florida isn’t as red as people think. DeSantis barely won. He had to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of black voters to win by a sliver. Then he rigged everything to make sure he’d get reelected the second time.
Ronda won 57% to 42%. It was one of the biggest margins in the race in a long time. Florida keeps going further right. Because they’ve got an average of like 800 Boomer retirees moving in daily.

Boomers are dying off. Gen Z is aging into voting age. Don’t take anything about that state for granted.
I think people really under estimate how much voter suppression goes on and how effective it is.
