Almost 40,000 people registered to vote in the 48 hours after President Biden announced he was suspending his reelection campaign and endorsing Vice President Harris, Vote.org said.
Vote.org said 38,500 new voters registered, representing the largest number of registrations in a 48-hour period this election cycle.
Of the new voter registrations, 83 percent were from people aged 18-34, according to the voting registration nonprofit group.
Losing Arizona bothers me.
This, exactly. We have a history of winning the popular vote and losing the election. We can argue about how terrible the EC is later, but that fact is not going to be changed before the election. We need to win the EC.
Harris is a California Democrat. She will easily win the blue states that anyone with a “(D)” after their name would win, and she will almost certainly take the popular vote. But that isn’t enough to win a presidential election.
Kelly is a unicorn. He is a Democrat that has the demonstrated ability to win in a red state. He will win any state that Harris will win, and he has a good chance at poaching enough voters to turn some otherwise red states competitive.
Harris might squeak through a win if we are very, very lucky.
Kelly will beat Trump like a rented redheaded stepmule.
The other senator form the same state also won as a Democrat. That doesn’t mean Harris should select her.
Are you suggesting he be the nominee for president? In 2024?
I think he has a better chance than Harris at winning the election. I think the negatives attributed to him are positions held by his constituents, and are not unreasonable in context. I think he is progressive, but pragmatic.
Yes, I’d put him at the top of the ticket.
That doesn’t mean I’ll “Bernie or Bust” for him.
