Deep red areas WITHIN those states
No, but the early voting is showing we are very strong. The GOP is going to vote 80/20 in person, so if we are tied in the early vote or leading, we are in very good shape. We did an excellent job in registration.
“If GOP Senators are depending on Trump to drag them over the line it suggests there is something seriously wrong with the quality and performance of these Senators.“
I disagree.
Leftist propaganda is much harder to fight at the state and local level.
Legislators are judged not by whether they defend the Constitution or put America first in trade policy - but rather by whether or not they can bring home the bacon for their state or locality - whether they can win at the wealth redistribution game (which is entirely a Leftist construct).
Persuading voters to reject Leftist lies is hard enough for a POTUS, but it is that much harder down-ticket.
A US Senator is supposed to decide on federal law - defend the US constitution - but when he campaigns for re-election he is held to account for how his particular state is faring - conflicts abound.
If senators are expected to be loyal to their party’s national agenda, and support the President at the top of the ticket - a wise POTUS will return the favor and campaign hard in their state races.
Trump hasn’t done a rally in CA. He did a fundraiser, then hit NV (which is in good position to flip).
I agree that registration has been great, which is one of the reasons why I am so optimistic about this election. But we dismiss articles like these at our own peril. If I had a nickel for every time a FReeper mentioned a red tsunami in 2018 I’d be rich.
“They said the same thing about Hillary!”
Even past the election, and then lIarillary wanted a recount.
NYSlimes is doing some real huffing and puffing to boost their man. Unconvincing.
Trump is getting out the vote in early voting states like Ohio. He is shoring up supporters ’ motivation to cast their ballots.
Biden will win a landslide in Washington DC and 8 other states but America - ha ha ha- go away.
“How did Nixon/Trump win?! We don’t know anyone who voted for Nixon/Trump!”
1980 election night WAS a sea of blue!
4 hours 20 minute mark!!!

>>Plus, haven’t the MSM been calling Georgia, Texas and few other traditionally red states ‘battlegrounds’?
They claim that every election cycle
This almost made me cry...

I know, I’m a pearl-clutcher, I admit it. Please somebody talk me down off this ledge.
