Showing Original Post only (View all)Barack Obama won Florida . Could Biden do it ? [View all]
This November, there will be an abortion measure on the ballot in Florida. This will very likely motivate a lot more people to vote and hopefully to vote Democrat from top to bottom of ticket.
For the senate, polls are saying Rick Scott is still ahead of Debbie Mucarsel-Powel but I am not sure these polls properly capture the effect of having abortion on the ballot.
Likewise, Trump is polling ahead of BIden but there are still lots of undecided who could make the difference after a few more months of Trump trials and general jackasserie.
It might be a long shot but if Biden won it , it would all but close any possibility of Trump making it to 270.
