Battleground Florida with Christopher Heath

In 2016 the polls were wrong. Sure, the national polls got things right on the money. But state-level polling was all over the place and missed Donald Trump's victories in several states. Now with 2020’s numbers rolling in, the polling industry is looking at hits and a lot of misses. Michael Binder is the Faculty Director of the Public Opinion Research Lab at the University of North Florida. He joins the podcast to see what went right and what went so, so wrong

Self-described “GOP Operative Turned Advocate and Political Observer” Liam Donovan joins the podcast to handicap the 2020 election. Who is going to win Florida, Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina, Iowa, and the rest? Are we seeing a shift in the electorate or is this a temporary realignment? Also, how many Senate races could be headed to a run-off. This is the last episode before the election, so buckle up! It’s going to be fun!

Since February, WFTV reporter Lauren Seabrook has been covering the COVGID-19 crisis from lockdowns and masks, to schools and nursing homes.

Decision Desk HQ contributor Niles Edward Francis (@NilesGApol ) joins the podcast from Atlanta to try and convince the world that Georgia is a swing state just like Florida.

What counties he’s watching on election night and how long it could be before all the votes get counted in Florida’s neighbor to the north.
