I hear people complaining all the time about things they can’t change - this is the one thing we DO have control over. I got robocalls and junkmail ads for candidates every day for a month before the primary but not one card, letter, phone call, text, or email asking if I was going to vote, and if I needed help with transportation etc. I’ll bet the results would be surprising if someone just contacted every registered Republican and urged them to vote.
What we are seeing in recent special elections is a huge disproportionate turnout in white liberal enclaves, such as:
Ulster, NY
Ithaca, NY
Lincoln, NE
Rochester, MN
