So FL is dead. Man the polls were way off there.

[Statistical]

The only good news is FL has a large cuban hispanic population so doesn't really reflect on what will happen in the rest of the country.

Florida just sucks.

[Claustrum]

1. It was off in 2018 too. According to polls, FL should have a democratic senator and governor,

Which we know didn't happen.

[still_one]

2. How off were the polls? Most of the polls I saw averaged effectively said it was a tie

[Statistical]

12. 538 average was +3. The top rated polls were +3 to +5 in the closing week.

That is off enough to draw questions. Maybe FL is just really hard to poll. Like I said the good news is Florida demographics are somewhat unique so it may not play out anywhere else.

[still_one]

14. Those numbers are within the MOE. I never had any illusions that Florida, and especially

Georgia at the very best would be close

[Statistical]

31. Except it is not close. Trump is likely carrying FL by 3 possibly more.

Sorry pollers showing Biden +4 when Trump wins FL by +3 or more that is a 7 pt swing and they have some explaining to do. The only possible good news is that FL may not reflect the rest of the country.

[still_one]

33. Has Florida been called for trump yet? 3 points is within the margin of error

[DashOneBravo]

13. I edited that.

What do you mean “Cubans just suck”?

[mercuryblues]

17. really?

Florida's whit pop is 77%. I'd say they are the ones that suck.

[dem4decades]

24. Whites voting against a candidate with a pro immigrant policy i get

I don't agree with it but i get it.

Immigrants voting against a pro immigrant candidate just suck.

[DashOneBravo]

35. Naw that's not what you said.

You made a short blanket statement about Cubans.

[CentralMass]

4. It can't suck enough.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. Florida is an anomaly, I think.

Florida Man is real and there are a lot of them.

[NoMoreRepugs]

6. Been here 22 years. The number of goobers

n gomers is astounding. Want to see the breakdown of the vote.

[dchill]

16. Breakdown of the goober to gomer ratio?

[NoMoreRepugs]

21. Good one, I needed that.

[dchill]

36. I have lived in and visited Florida frequently. I know. I KNOW!

[coti]

37. Ha, me too nt

[coti]

22. I'm seriously wondering about the Dejoy factor, also.

The heck happened in Miami??

[Codeine]

7. This is within the stated margin of error. nt

[octoberlib]

8. It was rated as a toss up. The polls weren't way off. Well, some of them were.

[dustyscamp]

9. I feel bad for the kickass kids living there

[My Pet Orangutan]

10. How about this. Give FL Dems a quarter of the money & resources next time round

and see if they can do worse.

[OnDoutside]

15. There needs to be a root and branch reorganisation of the FL Dems. There's something seriously

bad going on there. I will await the numbers on the FL Puerto Rican community where there were worrying noises about not enough effort being done to register them, back about a month ago.

[coti]

28. Lol- and move that $$$ to TX and MT! nt

[My Pet Orangutan]

30. Texas is the future (not joking)

[Statistical]

34. Agreed. Texas is the long term play. Make that purple and the GOP has no solid roadmap to 270.

[fishwax]

11. polls were pretty close in florida throughout ... rarely (if ever) beyond the margin of error

It's disappointing, but it isn't a huge surprise, I'm afraid.

[uponit7771]

18. There's 1 million vote estimate to count if MSNBC estimates are correct

[Crunchy Frog]

19. Hard to believe that Obama won it twice.

[coti]

20. Yeah, it's just a fucked up state

Truly, no offense meant to Floridians. Just tired of this stuff during elections.

[AngryOldDem]

23. Joe Scarborough, who should know, has been saying for weeks these polls were false

It stings, but I’m not surprised.

Florida is to election night what Iowa is to the primaries. Not worth the weight given to them.

[Raine]

25. Gosh I thought maybe this time FL would go our way. 😢 nt

[Nictuku]

26. Not according to this:

https://www.electoral-vote.com/evp2020/Pres/Maps/Nov04.html

91% reporting...

[Statistical]

27. They reversed the numbers. Everyone else include FL website is Trump +3 not -3.

[Demsrule86]

29. No Florida was tied or up 2% only.

[superpatriotman]

32. I live here and run a business here

And yes, it sucks. Demo has shifted hard in the past ten years

[edhopper]

38. I don't trust

the count in Florida.
