Nailed it! FRiends under-estimate size of the never-Trumper crowd. But as soon as president Trump uttered “this is just another flu, it will die away when warm summer weather arrives”, I had a gut feeling he was going to lose. Basement Joe came across as taking covid more seriously by hiding in basement with his Burka and many switched to him or refrained from voting for Trump.
In 2024, 290,000,000 American voters are on target to have got themselves jabbed with the vaccine. That number is a humongous sample size. It is like MORE THAN FOUR times votes Trump received in either run. Those candidates who under-estimate fear of covid Americans (justified or not) will lose badly in 2024.
The numbers are what they are.
In the tables at https://freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/4019532/posts, the numerate can see where the thumb of the DNC went on the scale.
Only where it mattered.
Iowa 2020 forestalled this play by moving the mail ballot drop boxes onto property controlled by and under surveillance of the county people.
The Dems STILL stole an Iowa US House seat, and almost got another one.
You may recall the kerfluffle over Mariannette Miller-Meeks' 6-vote win in the 2nd Iowa CD. It only got that close because of the vote rigging - not "never-Trumpers".
Trump had Iowa sewed up - and he also had Nebraska sewed up.
That's why your never-Trump theory in NE is lame. The only point was to sneak in and grab an unguarded electoral vote.
Never-Trump doesn't do numbers well. They just vote against Trump. The DNC, however, makes their vote calculations to the nth degree.
In my post #16 on this thread, I explain that the Dems are going after TWO US House seats in Nebraska in 2022.
This is coordinated at the national level, if you read what they're up to in CD-1.
