President Bidenā€™s reelection campaign announced Monday that it will aim to flip Florida, targeting the home of former President Trump.

Campaign managerĀ Julie Chavez RodriguezĀ said in a memo that investing in Florida is part of the Biden campaignā€™s pathway to 270 electoral votes. Trump won the Sunshine State in 2020 with more than 51 percent, compared to Bidenā€™s 48 percent.

ā€œMake no mistake: Florida is not an easy state to win, but it is a winnable one for President Biden, especially given Trumpā€™s weak, cash-strapped campaign, and serious vulnerabilities within his coalition,ā€ she said.

ā€¦

The Biden campaign has also set its sightsĀ on flipping North CarolinaĀ in November. Trump won North Carolina by a tight margin in 2020, and Biden visited the state as part of his tour of every battleground state last month.

    Normally I would agree, but with the GOPs attacks on womenā€™s rights and Florida taking it to an extreme, I do believe there is a path to victory there for Democrats.
