Never estimate Florida, it will always disappoint
Always vote, but yes, I’ll believe Texas and Florida turn blue when I see it.
Texas is so abysmally gerrymandered it’s insane
But does that gerrymandering even matter for the presidential election?
Well, there’s also the voter suppression.
Oh of course but that’s a completely different issue. I’m from Nc so I’m really aware of the gerrymandering especially near these very blue counties like Wake.
Numerically no, practically yes.
Polling decisions are made on a per-district basis.
When you hear about democratic voter suppression in southern states, that’s because democratic strongholds are deliberately starved of resources to conduct elections.
I never thought about that but yes that makes sense.
The silver lining in my opinion is that Texas is in a very gradual, but inevitable slide to the left. Especially as wealthier tech workers move farther from city hubs, it’s fucking up the whole gerrymandering thing.

Orlando and Miami (and Tampa) do a lot to push blue, esp the surprisingly queer Orlando.
Florida used to be blue. Will it be again? We’ll see, but I’ll tell you that Floridians are sick to death of their current leadership. Change is coming.
Abortion and recreational weed are in the ballot as amendments this election. I know I voted for both.
