Could Florida's state parks scandal put its electoral votes in play?

Will the push by state officials to push construction projects in state parks put its electoral votes and Senate race in play this Fall?

Florida Democratic Party officials told reporters that a proposal for lodging and golf courses in state parks is turning voters of all ideologies against Republicans.

“Here in Florida, we have also seen the consequences of such extreme policies, like the state’s near total abortion ban, book banning, ‘Don’t Say Gay’ and plans to build golf courses and hotels in our precious state parks,” said Jasmine Burney-Clark, Florida Director for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ campaign.

“As we’ve ramped up efforts from Pensacola to Key West, it’s clear that while Donald Trump takes Florida for granted, we are just getting started. So, we’re reaching out to every voter, and we mean every voter.”
