36. FYI - it's the I-4 corridor

and it's +2 Dem usually. We're good to go in the SE of FL, and Central and Tampa area, it's the SW, E, and far north parts that we have trouble with. Being up 50.1 to 49.4 or such on election night with 40% counted is going to make me awfully gleeful - so hoping we see those numbers, if so, Ohio will just be icing. But, yeah, we need to go with the strongest, and spend there, but I think they're gonna have a little they can spend in FL to keep the Repubs honest here, and spending their own money here, instead of spending it all in OH and VA.
