Democrats see realistic path to victories in Florida
The HIll ^ | 09/12/2022 | Max Greenwood

Democrats are eyeing what they believe is an increasingly realistic path to victory in Florida’s marquee midterm races after months of hesitation over just how aggressively to contest the state this year.

The Sunshine State has proven elusive to Democrats in recent years; former President Trump carried it in both 2016 and 2020, Republicans have outpaced Democrats in voter registrations and the party has struggled with mounting losses among Latinos, a key constituency that Democrats once saw as a reliable voting bloc.

But recent polling has reignited Democratic interest in Florida, fueling hope among party operatives and officials that they just might be able to oust Gov. Ron DeSantis and Sen. Marco Rubio (R) this year and reassert Florida’s reputation as a swing state.

“I don’t want to sound overly optimistic. We still have a lot of work to do,” said one Democratic consultant involved in key races in Florida. “But things are trending in the right direction.”

For theft and cheating, they need machinery in place. They probably still do own the southern three counties, same as in 2000, but they don’t own Tallahassee or enough judges anymore.

The Dems lost in 2016 and 2020. Republicans are outpacing Dems in voter registration. Latinos are now voting Republican in greater numbers. Trends?? What is he talking about.

Governor DeSantis cleaned a lot of that up by shitcanning some leftie election officials in S Fla. after he took office.

Ok, the Hill jumped the shark with this one. I can believe GA or PA or other states, but Florida is another story.

Many companies provide free coffee and donuts for their employees. The Hill must provide free booze and weed.

Okey Dokey, and people will amend the constitution because they want Biden to serve 3 terms.

More like

1. Democrats mysteriously run the boards and keep the senate and house. Mass unrest insues. Conservatives complain but ultimately do nothing.

It's The Hill, folks. That said, don't underestimate the depth and width of the DNC vote fraud machine.

Of course they do. They are printing the extra ballots as we speak. Should have enough done so that by election date they will have MORE ballots then there are voters in Florida.

LOL. This article is just comfort therapy for Dems and their fellow travelers in the media who are wetting their pants about Republican gains this Fall.

What hill is the GOP willing to die on? Donald Trump is still the greatest obstacle in the way of the communist global reset being pushed on this American Republic. DeSantis stands in their way in Fla and he needs to continue to shape that state for the future of all Americans. The commie dems want Trump out because he will win and expose the expanse of treason permeating our government. DeSantis would be an easy take down for these traitors who are now in control of our constitutional Republic. It is not fear of defeat that motivates NO TRUMPERS to push for DeSantis, he would not win. It is the fear of a Trump victory that will save this Republic and clean up the garbage that DC is wallowing in.

FUD for the ‘D’onkey Party fools! The ‘D’s are trying, so keep sending the money in as we need to keep our DNC support staff housed & fed!

As a FL resident, this is improbable barring illicitness.

Hold back ballot boxes election night until the majority of democrat boxes are in and counted. Cheating happens when the number needed to win becomes known.

And hold large precincts back until after 96% of democrat precincts are in.
