Where can Democrats reverse the partisan trend?

Saw a post about one of the Tennessee 3 running for Marsha Blackburn’s seat. That seems like a stretch, but got me thinking about where Democrats can make inroads in red/purple states. Georgia is a great example of recent success, and I thought for years that North Carolina might be trending towards Democrats but that doesn’t seem to be the case today. Ohio and Florida seem solidly Republican. So where can we succeed next? As a current resident of Texas, I think we’re at least a decade away there.

and Texas can be brought back to our party if we really focus on them, using tv,radio,social media, etc. And instead of talking about undocumented immigrants (who many Hispanic citizens don’t really care about) we should focus on kitchen table issues i.e. healthcare, and the economy.
