Harris hunts for GOP votes as Democrats fear her base support is eroding
Washington Examiner ^ | October 21, 2024 8:13 pm | Samantha-Jo Roth

Vice President Kamala Harris teamed up with former Rep. Liz Cheney on Monday in an aggressive bid to win over centrist Republicans who are on the fence about voting for former President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

The Harris campaign held moderated conversations in an effort to court centrists in the suburbs in battlegrounds that delivered Trump victory in 2016 but swung back for President Joe Biden in 2020.  

Harris is stumping alongside Cheney in an effort to win over voters who might have backed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, who had a base of supporters who were centrist and college-educated. 

The former Wyoming congresswoman who is the daughter of Vice President Dick Cheney was exiled from the GOP after participating in a congressional investigation of Trump’s role in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. 

She previously was in Republican leadership in the House before supporting Trump’s second impeachment. She was eventually booted from leadership and defeated by a Trump-backed challenger in a GOP primary for her seat. Cheney called the choice between Harris and Trump, specifically on foreign policy, “absolutely clear.”

“Our adversaries know they can play Donald Trump,” Cheney said. “They absolutely know they can play him, and we simply can’t afford to take that risk.”

Cheney, speaking at the event in Malvern, Pennsylvania, a Philadelphia suburb, asked women there who oppose abortion to put their feelings on the topic aside and suggested that Republican restrictions on abortion had gone too far following the 2022 Supreme Court ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that there is no constitutional right to abortion.

Suburban women, who feel abortion should be available to all women, regardless of whether they personally would have one (or are too damn old to get pregnant again).

The Haley crowd probably had a lot of dems so they are already over on the Harris ledger.

Turn out is key, my excellent FRiends.

Vote early.

Vote in person.

Got a friend or fam that needs to use the mail in ballot?

Okay, get them to complete it EARLY, and drive them to the post office where you can post it INSIDE the PO.

Nudge, pester, insist, but cajole with your Conservative friends and fam. Every vote is critical, there is no sitting back because someone thinks the election is in the bag.

TURNOUT IS THE KEY to this critical election!

That first picture was from over 2 1/2 years ago in Texas before he declared for president. Was in Conroe Texas.

Remember how we were all supposed to “unite around our candidate” when it was McCain and Romney? When we were told that if we wanted somebody different, the primary process was where we did it?

Now we see what happens when the shoe is on the other foot. They desert the ship like rats.

“...centrist Republicans...”

Yep, the reason in two words why this country is a mess. The GOPe/uniparty especially over the years put us in $36 trillion in debt never to be paid, much of gummit evil starts right there.

“ Harris is stumping alongside Cheney in an effort to win over voters who might have backed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, who had a base of supporters who were centrist and college-educated.”

You’d think then that Haley would be stumping for Kackula.

Oh, yeah, Haley endorsed Trump.

Yes. The rinos are two faced liars.

I wonder if anyone has access to apartment complexes etc where undeliverable mail ballots sit on a table outside the normal mail boxes. Whether those undeliverable ballots should be left sitting there waiting for cheaters to pick them up and fill them out for Harris 100%?

Every election year about 8% of Dems vote GOP and vice versa.

Literally all polling to date shows essentially those numbers this time.

There is therefore no special Never Trump faction outside DC. The numbers are utterly insignificant. And they don’t live in Wisconsin.

The Haley types already made up their minds in or out and they already appear in polls. There is nothing new to be chased there.

I thought she was Dick Cheney’s sister. That’s his daughter? They look like twins.

Another reason to vote early - in Arizona, the ballot is 4 pages long with a lot of referendums

If you wait, it is likely you will be in a long line waiting for those ahead of you to wade through the extensive choices.

I probably spent the better part of an hour trying to get mine ready for drop off at the polling station today and I’m pretty familiar with most of the arguments.

Kramala and Lizard Cheney have moderated “town hall.”
Kramala can’t do it alone.
All questions “preselected.”
People attending NOT allowed to ask questions.
They call this a town hall?
Democrats and their new puppet are DONE.
It’s over!

I think that Liz needs to really show her commitment to the Dem party and dye her hair purple, get a nose ring and punch some really big holes in her earlobes. She might as well come out as lesbian too.

Apparently she’s doing better with non college educated white and seniors and that’s why the polls are tight. Trump is doing better with all other groups.
