I do. I think all the Trump people put in the work and showed up. The people who didn’t bother to show probably would have leaned toward making their own lives better instead of other people’s lives worse.
Many times. Although they are often drunk so maybe it doesn’t count? Or maybe it’s unfiltered and true.
The folks who didn’t vote really see all options as corrupt and want the end of this dumb story but they would pick the option that caused less pain if they were already in the booth.
I think in swing states, the turn out was greater than in 2020. Harris got more votes than Biden. But, obviously, Trump got more than Harris. People who sat out in 2020 came out for Trump. Following what you’ve shared, it’s because they saw Trump as the option that caused less pain.
All of this makes sense to me. I don’t know how the voters who sat out in 2024 would have otherwise come out for Harris.
Uh, yeah. And it wasn’t “for democrats”, or even for Harris. Everyone was saying for months that Trump was an imminent threat to our democracy and had fascist ambitions.
Now, ::Pikachu face:: as he does fascist things and is eroding our democracy. MAGAts are wrong and cruel and bad, but at least they bother to vote…
Republicans obviously feel that way. They made it perfectly clear by all the voter suppression tactics they employed across the board. They’ve even basically admitted in certain quotes that this is the case. Starting to appear like you haven’t been paying attention.
Actually, it’s only like this because people didn’t vote. Soap, ballot, jury, ammo: they say to use the boxes in this order…
Do you think that if more people voted they would have voted for Democrats?

Have you spoken to anyone who didn’t vote and really listened to them?

I don’t think this bothers them. If they did, they would have voted. For months people said this was going to happen. And now it’s happening.

In six of the seven swing states, voter turn out exceeded 2020 levels and was record turn out.
