The biggest reason why democrats aren't competitive in these states is because of gerrymandering. Republicans have done everything in their power to make congressional districts totally uncompetitive and frankly in my eyes undemocratic because you're making politicians unaccountable. So by making more congressional districts uncompetitive it makes it harder for democrats to win statewide as they have a smaller bench to work from.
Georgia and Missouri are two states that have seen shameful gerrymandering. Democrats can't win in Georgia as they have no vote outside of Atlanta.
2020 is the most important presidential election because the 2010 gerrymandering of districts needs to be undone and be more democratic.
Gerrymandering is the biggest reason why this country is divided. We have an electoral college favouring democrats and a congressional map that is gerrymandered to every cm across America to ensure a Republican majority hence nothing gets done in Washington.
