Biden May Be Facing an Election Unwinnable by Conventional Means
Front Page Magazine ^ | 6 Sep, 2023 | Daniel Greenfield

The more the election becomes conventionally unwinnable, the more it will be waged unconventionally.

Remember the “conventional” part.

Elections don’t just come down to swaying the electorate, but increasingly to turning out your base. The Dems are parasitically dependent on black voter turnout. Especially with Latino and Asian voters becoming more erratic. While some Republicans are touting gains among black men, the thing to remember is that they vote in small numbers and the actual Democrat base is the ‘church lady’ electorate. Older black women.

A threat to the Dem black electorate is politically fatal. Or at least it ought to be. And things look grim.

Mr. Biden’s weakness among nonwhite voters is broad, spanning virtually every demographic category and racial group, including a 72-11 lead among Black voters and a 47-35 lead among Hispanic registrants. The sample of Asian voters is not large enough to report, though nonwhite voters who aren’t Black or Hispanic — whether Asian, Native American, multiracial or something else — back Mr. Biden by just 40-39. In all three cases, Mr. Biden’s tallies are well beneath his standing in the last election.

Those are still majorities, but they’re increasingly feeble ones.

Dems don’t win by scoring less than three-quarters of the black vote and the Hispanic vote isn’t supposed to be this close. Biden is within a margin of error of losing the general mass non-white voters.

These are bad numbers, but the numbers were also bad in 2022. What the Dems did was focus heavily on turning out the new emerging base, upscale young white voters with college degrees. Republicans have made crucial inroads among working-class minority voters, but Democrats have more than compensated for it by gobbling up suburban and upscale urban white voters. That Kung Fu move worked pretty well in 2022.

And the Democrats have learned even more heavily on abortion, global warming and LGBTQ issues.

The problem is that this just worsens the drift. The more you court a different set of voters, the worse the bleeding among your existing base gets. Both Republicans and Democrats are experiencing this. A lot of suburban more liberal Republicans have left because they don’t like the party’s new tone, but likewise minority voters are leaving because they think the Democrats have become a woke hipster party.

The Times/Siena data suggests the emergence of a fairly clear education gap among nonwhite voters, as Mr. Biden loses ground among less affluent nonwhite voters and those without a degree. Overall, he retains a 61-23 lead among nonwhite college graduates, compared with a mere 49-31 lead among those without a four-year degree.

And the white working-class vote obviously got on a boat and sailed away.

Get the Masked Blood Pride actors to March! Get the Tiki Torches out! Roll out a new Covid Illness to panic people! Or best yet—Start WW III! In war the people always support a Democrat (Like FDR). Biden can’t Lose. If he falters—there is always “Handsome” Newsom, or “Flashing” Como or “Dependable” Witmer. No, as long as there is a printing Press and a mailbox, no Democrat can ever lose.

Ballots marked for Biden are already printed and stuffed in ballot boxes in certain key states.

Scam to pick the pocket of the slow thinking public they are helping as cause.

Climate control major back up plan.

Well, yeah.

If you’ve been paying attention. Democrats are going to do their best to ensure Trump is the Republican nominee, and then remove him from the ballots of key states, while he rots in prison.

In this manner, they will win again.

The people choose the politicians, and the globalist elite choose the people.

Headline? No biggie. He won the last election by unconventional means. He stole it. Just like JFK.

As long as the government vote counters are still on-board, he’s golden.

>>Agreed. He won’t be the nominee anyway.

Maybe not, but he’s going to have to be dragged kicking and screaming. Being re-elected might be his only chance of staying out of prison.

If the previous election was conventional then Biden would not be sitting in the White House as PINO (President In Name Only.)
