Emerson has Lamb up three. But others (Gravis) had him down 2-6 recently. All up to Republican turnout. If they sit on their asses, we lose. Gotta vote people!
Yes, motivating folks to show up has been key to this and all races for republicans since day 1. Which is why the messaging in this race has had me angry from the get go.
The republican messaging is NOT IMHO going to motivate the MAGA voters to show up... the core republicans sure.. but the disenfranchised voters who voted for Trump and gave him PA?? Nope... the messaging has been all wrong...
This advertising and messaging has not been... you put Trump in the white house and now the Democrats want to stop him... You must show up to help Trump and the MAGA agenda by sending Saccone to DC to fight for the MAGA agenda.
No, its all been just traditional old tired Republican messaging that never got these voters to vote R before, let alone show up in a special election. Its been BAD messaging for what is needed from the get go.
Literally you could run every single ad for Saccone that is out there, other than the 1 ad explicitly calling out the tax cut “Crumbs” comment for any election in the last 10-20 years for any republican.
The GOPe just still does not seem to understand what happened in 2016!... I live in the district, if Lamb wins it isn’t because the Republicans didn’t fight... its that they fought a 2010 election in 2018.
Its been disappointing to watch from day one. Motivating voters to show up si what the R’s have to do in a special election or midterm... and simply playing to the traditional republican base is NOT going to do that... This race should not be within 3-6 points if Republicans didn’t have the heads up their arses with their messaging.
Wish we could FReep this district....go door to door to GOTV!!
Perhaps it has something to do with coming from a local political dynasty with strong connections to the ObaMao Administration. His sole purpose of USMC service was to build a resume to run for office
