For the 2008 election (Obama/McCain)....there were a total of 129-million voters in the mix.
For the 2012 election (Obama/Romney)....there were a total of 126-million voters in the mix.
For the 2016 election (Clinton/Trump)....there were a total of 128-million voters in the mix.
For the 2020 election (Biden/Trump)....there were a total of 155.5-million voters in the mix.
(Note, I'm not counting the 3rd-party guys).
The question here....can you dig up 25-million extra voters....which in 2008/2012/2016.....was not possible.
Adding to this issue....if inflation is still a continuing problem (four years into Biden's period)....will working class Democrats really buy into the Biden or Newsom message?
Then you consider.....just on California woes of the past decade....is there anything really positive about Newsom....other than he looks really good in a thousand-dollar suit?
It's a sad thing to admit....but there's clearly not any dynamic 'star' as governor or senator....that the Democratic Party can drag out and really attract people....other than Biden or Newsom.
You need to find these 25-million extra people and somehow convince them to vote again, and I just don't see this possible.
If Trump exceeds the 2020 numbers (he had 74.2-million votes)? Well....that's another worry....that he might actually convince another 3-million voters (probably Hispanic and blacks), and suddenly.....the 25-million Biden extra votes really matter a lot.

ReplyDeleteWe were in Wal*Mart this morning looking at magazines... farm ideas, recipes, 1960s hot-rods, that sort of thing.
Important stuff.

Something in the paperbacks pulled my attention.
Apparently, that grotesquely-obese homosexual ex-bureaucrat 'stacey abrams' is a writer of 'romance novels', with her name on several.

I have zero-zero-zero interest in those time-wasters, so I wondered -- again -- about unrecognizable forces directing my thoughts, a game-show contestant for an invisible audience.
