You're right, it's amazing how Floridiands continually voted against their interest. The Miami mayor is forbidden from mentioning global warming, as they install the water pumps to combat the constant new wave of flooding. Insane. Criminal
Imagine what America would be like without gerrymandering & the Electoral college.

I can tell you when I lived in Daytona beach I voted in 3 presidential elections while living there and 2 mid terms. I had the same address each time, yet I voted in 4 different locations, because the Republicans kept "re-drawing" the district lines trying to get Volusia country to turn red. This election they finally managed to get the job done.
What is happening is not democracy, it's outright theft of elections in this state. They couldn't block it with Obama because he simply had way too fucking much support, but in unpopular elections with candidates like we just saw it works well.
IMO the supreme court needs to go and reset all the districts. Let them feed the info into a computer based on population and let it randomly redaw all the districts based on population "only" like it should be.. These govt officials IMO whom are doing this gerrymandering should be lined up and shot for treason to democracy.
