If they do an April special, can argue the courts can’t do anything because it’s too close to the election Can be challenged in future, but whatever maps pass would be the midterm maps Learn Purcell principle, nerds

Against, at the time, a monster incumbent who raised more money than any gubernatorial candidate ever Overall cycle dynamics aside, Florida as 2022 snapshot has to consider that Dems never bought in on Crist and DeSantis at that time was a juggernaut

My favorite little data point from that shift: In 2014, Charlie Crist got 2.8m votes and lost Florida’s Gov election by 1 point. In 2022, Crist ran for governor again, got 3.1m votes, and lost by 20 points.
