The 2022 statewide campaign was nonexistent; the voter participation was historically bad on the Democratic side; anyone wants to give me D+ the 2022 Florida statewide spread in a wager? I am taking the bet
Yeah. I think of it like NV 2014. The Dems crashed bc they gave up on the Gov race and there wasn’t enough institutional Dem support and voter turnout to prevent a collapse.
This time, Florida Democrats have a leader and the semblance of a state party organization, enthusiasm, tens of thousands of volunteers, candidates in just about every downticket race (this really matters!), a great Senate candidate against Rick Scott – and a stellar Presidential candidate in Kamala Harris.

Best state party work I've seen since the 'Old He Coon' Lawton Chiles was our Governor
