For Democrats, the three most elusive states to win are Texas, Florida and North Carolina. If Democrats win those states, it's a wipeout election.
So where do they stand? North Carolina has nominated an absolute freakshow of a gubernatorial candidate. He's on record opposing woman suffrage FFS. Texas has Ted Cruz on the ballot and he's one of the worst people not named Donald Trump. Texas has also been so very, very poorly governed by the GOP, though hating on immigrants does surprisingly well there.
Then there's Florida. Florida has been the site of Democratic heartbreak since 2000. It's also moved to the right since then. However, we have ballot initiatives that might help Biden and Democrats, including the Senate race, if the election is close to begin with.
Winning a Senate majority could come down to ousting Cruz and Voldemort cosplay enthusiast Rick Scott. If abortion is the issue that makes that happen, so much the better.
