    This year Florida will have a special election for the remainder of Rubio’s Senate term (since he resigned to become Secretary of State). Miami, which has been a heavily Republican city in Recent decades elected a Democratic mayor in December. I think that this is concrete evidence that Flipping Florida Blue is possible if we nominate the right candidate.

      I looked at how those demographics are polling and ironically it appears the conservative Latino and Hispanics of Florida are shifting blue…

      because of affordability and explicitly not culture issues (like whether or not immigrants have rights). What a crazy world we live in.
