COME ON BABY LIGHT MY FIRE

Beat me to it. Going off fading memory, DeSantis won reelection by somewhere around 16% and Fl was only R +100,000 voters.

They're now at +1,000,000,000 and working everyday to sign up many, many more. Heard an interview with the State Rep party chair (Yes, while mowing the lawn...) so some of this could be off a bit, but that's pretty much where this "battleground" State is today.

But, by all means blow big sack of the Hollyweird money on Fl. It's def in play.

Not going back? So you love high inflation, open borders and violent crime by illegal immigrants?

And assassination attempts in the country President Vegetable promised to unify?



Yea, asked this very thing yesterday, pretty sure I didn't hear back...

Not going back? To what? Peace, prosperity and sovereignty?

Guess that's just to too much WINNING to stand. 07-coffee3

RE: Could Florida return as King of the Swing States?
FL was the one battleground state that had their shht together in 2020 by having all votes counted and releasing their results on election night. Once Trump had easily won, the live betting markets flipped his way big time. It also got the ball rolling for the slow counts and cheating in Atlanta, Milwaukee, Philly and Detroit. All those states had polled similar to FLA so the Dems had to throw the vote counting/ ballot harvesting/ finding truckloads of votes in high gear after the Florida results were announced. Maybe this time, FL should just sit on theirs for a while

I'll bet you a year long (self-imposed) ban from this board that Trump wins Florida by 5 or more points.

Still waiting on your reply, Nole.

No thank you, I'm not interested in any ban bets. Prize isn't worthwhile, why would I want fewer amusing deplorables here? Visit Vegas if you like to gamble.

My God you liberals are delusional. Which is typical.

Florida is as far from a toss-up as Mississippi and Alabama. Trump wins Florida by 5-7.

You people have lost your mind.

Believe what exactly? Can you say Florida is a GOP lock? Wonder how Florida’s is going to vote on weed and abortion which will be on their Nov ballot? Are you accounting for Republicans that may be fed up with Trump and DeStantis shtick?

I'll bet you a year long (self-imposed) ban from this board that Trump wins Florida by 5 or more points.

Nope. While you sit there a claim it is a lock I don’t believe it is. At this point I acknowledge Trump is leading and would win. But still a long way to go and strange things happen right. Many thought Hillary would be president. Why are you so convinced the same kind of upset ca not happen to Trump? I know you snowflakes would just call it cheating.

I see you've graduated from the kamala school of plagiarism. The Democrats are the 'snowflakes'. 07-coffee3

No way FL is in play, even if the stanky rotten corpse of Brenda Snipes is dug up and somehow resurrected. Trump did BETTER in Fl in 2020 vice 2016. With the failures of Biden-Harris, how does that gap amazingly narrow?

That's just a truly stupid statement. You're either grossly overconfident, or you don't know enough about politics to participate meaningfully in this discussion. Yes, Florida is not a tossup. There is certainly momentum for VP Harris though that may make things more interesting there this year...and could potentially make FL a tossup by election day IF it continues apace. But if I had to guess today, I think Trump still wins it.

But saying Florida is as far from a tossup as Mississippi and Alabama is ridiculous. Neither of them has voted Democrat since Jimmy Carter in 1976, and take a look at the margins for your Dear Leader in the 3 states -

2020 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Unite...l_election
Alabama = Trump by 25.46%
Mississippi = Trump by 16.54%
Florida = Trump by 3.36%

2016 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_Unite...l_election
Alabama = Trump by 27.72%
Mississippi = Trump by 17.80%
Florida = Trump by 1.2%

I sure hope the Trump campaign and the RNC are as foolish/clueless as you though, writing Florida off as in the bag like MS and AL would be most helpful to us as we strive to make it the ultimate swing state again.

Polls had Trump losing FL by 3points the last week of October 2020. Add 4 points to Trump's side on EVERY poll you see. That is the minimum he overperforms them.

Could be the same, could be different this time. By all means please fight the last war while we prepare for this one. Florida has added 706,597 people since 2020, and Trump won the state in 2020 by 371,686 votes.

2-3 weeks of Harris honeymoon doesn’t mean that states like Florida, Ohio, and NC are in play.

You guys are being duped.
