Florida's already in deep shit, and we're still five weeks out from the election. Plenty of time for already-high caseloads to spike higher.

My guess - Gov. DeAthsentence boosting caseloads to scare people away from the polls, especially in Palm Beach, Orlando, Miami, etc. - densely populated areas with lots of Democratic voters.

Certainly there will be more cases in red counties. But plenty of residents there think it's a hoax, and in less densely populated areas (ex Jax and Pensacola), they'll likely face lower infection risks - with lower impact on GOP voters.
