"Voters in liberal strongholds across the country, from city centers to suburban stretches, failed to show up to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris at the levels they had for Joseph R. Biden Jr. four years earlier, contributing significantly to her defeat by Donald Trump,” the New York Times reports.
“Counties with the biggest Democratic victories in 2020 delivered 1.9 million fewer votes for Ms. Harris than they had for Mr. Biden. The nation’s most Republican-heavy counties turned out an additional 1.2 million votes for Mr. Trump this year, according to the analysis of the 47 states where the vote count is largely complete.”
“The drop-off spanned demographics and economics. It was clear in counties with the highest job growth rates, counties with the most job losses and counties with the highest percentage of college-educated voters. Turnout was down, too, across groups that are traditionally strong for Democrats — including areas with large numbers of Black Christians and Jewish voters.”
You should be downvoted for this.
If your point is simply “why isn’t everyone doing the work for my lazy ass”, GFY
If that’s the point you inferred from my post, you’ve grossly misread
Disagree
I tell you that you’ve misunderstood me and you’re telling me “I disagree, I know what point you are trying to make”?
Oh boy, buddy, I need your thoughts and opinions like a hole in the head, good luck!
Do you need a reality check? Let’s get one:
You’re an absolute fucking idiot if you think anything else is happening right now.
Politicians mobilize voters, not the other way around. A politician failed to effectively mobilize. The strategy isn’t just “make everyone vote”, it’s to get people to care. The genocide isn’t a single issue to be ignored, it’s 43k reasons to not vote for either candidate.
Hard disagree, especially now when a previous reality show asshole can worm his way into office.
Why do you disagree? He mobilized the same number of voters, consistent over 3 elections. He got them to care, by borrowing leftist aesthetics to push class division.
Do you seriously think that Trump’s campaign “mobilized voters”?
Your cognitive dissonance is insane if so.
He lied and promised shit he had no intention of delivering on. Hands fucking down.
Of course he did. The problem is that Harris failed to even promise stuff.
She promised more of the same.
I mean, he explicitly wanted to turn it into an establishment vs. outsider election, and she went ahead and helped him! She wanted to win as “we are the establishment that made everything as it is” in a country with most people only agreeing on one single thing, the establishment being bad.
How stupid is that?
Why do you believe that what he did wasn’t mobilization? Enough people voted for him that he won, that’s called mobilization.
