    You can thank gerrymandering and low voter turn out due to gerrymandering for that…

      How does gerrymandering play in to DeSantis election? Isn’t it popularity voting that decides Florida’s governor?

        Gerrymandering leads to disenfranchisement, which leads to lower voter turnout by the opposition, which then leads to his election. You see a similar thing happen in Texas as well because people think “oh my vote doesn’t matter, why should i vote anyway?”
