    would be nice if Biden uses his lame duck status to revert it. FL isn’t much of a purple state anymore anyway

      It wouldn’t really mean that much since Trump would reverse that decision immediately.

      Basically just giving Trump a free win with the Latino block in Florida for no discernable benefit.

        By that logic, every state is a purple state and the classification isn’t useful anymore.

        Instead, the criteria that actually matters is the degree of uncertainty about which side of the 50% mark it’ll fall on in any given election. Florida is no longer all that uncertain.
