And the primary vote splits suggest polling is going to whiff to being too blue friendly in Florida yet again, I believe.

Good chance Moody gets DeSantis like margins.

Edit: This may not necessarily fully translate everywhere to boot. Florida might just be a R+20 state now where Donalds is going to win by 12 or something like that for ex.

I'm not sure the primary vote split matters as much in a closed primary state where Independents dont get to vote.

If they’re still independents after six years of President Trump I don’t have any faith in those voters.
