The most interesting insight from this article, imho, is that abortion rights in Florida are on the ballot in 2024, abortion rights have passed in every referendum on the topic since the recent Supreme Court fuckery, and that women coming to the polls to vote for their reproductive rights might skew the numbers more in favour of Democrats, independent of polling.
So Democrat victories in Florida (including a senator seat) are looking like a real possibility.

  This time, all the women might vote on an issue instead of not voting or going along with whatever the belligerent men say.
  
  Florida also has the Latino "ooga booga Democratic socialism!" mentality that drives them to vote for the strong-man who scares them to vote for him because they love a dictatorship that says it isn't a dictatorship.
