I suppose we could do the same thing. Audit the ballots. I haven’t heard anybody desiring to do this.

Team Blue was largely absent in both regards.

People in the streets in the area could often be heard repeating/singing the jingle and slogan from the Republican ads in the area. Dems dropped the ball in the region.

Let's not be like them. Admit our losses. We dropped the ball. We need to do better. Compete for every vote.
Organize, Organize, Organize. Do it all year round. Waiting a few months before an election is too late.

This passage from the article sums it up

“Democrats didn’t have a very effective ground game in Miami-Dade County,” said Gamarra. “From the beginning they were trying to defend themselves from the communist accusations. So it was difficult for them to develop a ground game. They did, but it was late.”

Gamarra said the resources Democrats had came in late, while Republicans had a constant presence in the state.

It’s a very red state with some small pockets of blue. The Dems do a crap job of organizing here. The Villages has advertised itself as the place R’s go to die. Cubans have reliably voted R and talk of socialism didn’t play well with those from South America. I’ve lived here my entire life and until Dems take organizing seriously and have a ground game 24/7, 365 days a year, every year nothing is going to change.
