Sure a theoretical path can be constructed, but if Trump is weak in Florida it is more likely he will lose other states that he won in 2016 than win any that he lost, and no way he would sweep all of the identified swing states that he won in 2016.

see Biden firmly in the 52-54% range in Florida in a matter of weeks, with little hope by GOP to recover

Mail in voting is already fucked up for anyone who has aged since they originally signed the voter card and if they stop early voting - we are well and truly fucked. I do have a strategy for this, but damn, sure don't want to have to risk my life and my highly at risk sisters life or really anyone's life, but will personally do whatever it takes to ensure I get my vote in and it counts.

It's responsible for many votes being discarded incorrectly. I'm surprised voting rights activists haven't tried to get this changed. With the increase in Mail Ballots it could take Florida forever to tally the votes if they have to verify the signature on each against the original registration signature. This added to the other issues Florida seems to have each cycle makes Florida dicey for Dems. I'm glad Biden doesn't need Florida to get to 270.

Voldemort packed FL's courts with the reddest of repugs and they ruled for him to not include a whole box full of votes hidden at a Broward County post office. You can bet if the votes were found in Deland, they would have been counted since it's KKK central for FL.

they cheat in every way imaginable:

hanging chads
ballot design
hacking DREs
denying mail ballot signatures
losing mailed ballots
etc

That will not end with DeSatan...
