I know it's still early, but the Florida results are upsetting me and it makes me worry about the other swing states. I'm just having 2016 flashbacks. I'm having seriously physical reactions from the stress.

(1,846 posts)I think we need to just look at FL as a Trump home state and look to others for our path to win.
Also. we can't help if folks buy the "Biden is a socialist" crap.
We've got lots of paths....let's keep going!

Try taking away SS and medicare from people in Florida and see how they do.

There are no socialists..communists, etc.
All we are doing is trying to decide what belongs in the basket that the government provides either because it's more cost effective or fair from a distribution perspective,
I think it changes the playing field we are arguing on.

(101,729 posts)So, I'd advise you to take a lot of posts with a grain of salt--especially those touting exit polls.
There is a tendency to want to be FIRST and that is not always the same as to be ACCURATE
