Why is the Biden campaign investing in Florida?

[Bush did 311]

Florida has a long streak of voting for the incumbent. Bill Clinton lost it in 1992 then won it in 1996. Bush went from winning by 500 votes in 2000 to winning by 5% in 2004. Trump only won by 3% that's not the same territory as Ohio or Missouri - swing states that are long gone. Florida's a growing state and young people there aren't happy with the direction the state has gone.

There is also the abortion referendum and the Senate race.

These are just proposals. Personally I think it's ludicrous. Probably just maintaining a presence for the party in the state for future elections, and probably doing it also just to personally spite Trump.

Maybe they think RFK will help?

FWIW democrats have had a registration advantage my entire life in NC and it's done nothing. It does not correlate 1:1 with winning. LA, KY have a dem edge yet they lose by huge margins. AZ and CO were examples of an R advantage in headcount.

It's such a massive gap in FL that it would require some anti-Trump Republicans voting for Biden. I got the impression that wasn't the flavor in that state but I'm not the wizard of elections.

They are building for the future. Democrats know that they need more than 25 states where they can win a Senate race.

Just pay 200,000 Californians to move to Montana or something. Probably cheaper and less far-fetched than trying to hang on to a state that is clearly gone.

I say we pay every Democratic Floridian to be distributed across the other major battlegrounds.

A lot of people are leaving the state though it remains to be seen if these are political refugees or missionaries.
