I think Florida is gone no matter what the DNC does. Climate change will finish off the transition to a solid red state, given that everything will eventually be underwater except The Villages and Floribama.

I think you know nothing about the reality on the ground and the local issues that matter here(just my opinion)

I really despise this sort of defeatism. Not helpful!

In this election, Democrats nationwide failed to run a candidate in one thousand legislative races. ThatтАЩs political malpractice. Florida was an honorable exception; thanks to Nikki FriedтАЩs leadership of an invigorated Florida Party, I believe Dems ran a candidate in EVERY race.

And are continuing to build a bench for the future.. to summarily write off the 3rd most populous state in the nation without a fight is political malpractice(and stupid); obviously, you prioritize your strategy moving forward but you don't just throw up your hands and whine, and say that all hope is lost; just like Texas, our side needs to fight the Republicans in Florida; the Hispanic vote holds the balance of power here; we need to better effectively message to that voter universe (and then let the chips fall where they may)
