From time to time, Christopher Bouzy has some really interesting facts and analysis. That said, he does strike me as an incurable optimist and a bit of a Dem cheerleader right now. I don’t have time to look for specific Tweets right now, but here is his feed.

He seems way too confident we are winning FLA.

He’s too optimistic in a lot of his projections, and that’s being generous. That said - he did call correctly that 2022 was not in fact going to be a red wave, though people like Rosenberg and Bonier did that with way less fantastical suggestions

I agree. Occasionally Bouzy offers data that I find interesting, but I do think his rhetoric is over the top.

With a stellar GOTV effort in Florida, fueled by the Abortion and Weed referenda, I do think it’s within the realm of possibility that Debbie Murcasel-Powell defeats Rick Scott.

My dream scenario for Election Night is North Carolina and Florida being called early for Kamala Harris. I think she’ll win NC, but I definitely wouldn’t bet my life or my life savings on Florida.

I can't imagine that anyone would look at the collection of data and anecdotes on Florida this year and seriously conclude that Harris is likely to win it. She'd do well to come within 5.

If Harris loses Florida by 5 I will be ecstatic

Not just on Florida itself. While states dont move in unison, the movement is clsoe enough that - Harris wins FL means she's safely ahead in most of the swing states - not tied or losing in the polls.

Definitely not likely. It would be a real upset.
