During a campaign-style tour of the West late last month, Senator Elizabeth Warren did not announce she was running for president. But in private events and public speeches, her message about 2020 was as clear as it was rousing.
In Salt Lake City, Ms. Warren urged Democrats to turn out in force for the midterm elections to build momentum for the next presidential race, and in Denver, she told a meeting of state legislators and trial lawyers that she wanted to be a tribune for lower-income Americans, according to people who attended the events. And in a speech to the Nevada Democratic Party in Reno, Ms. Warren said Democrats must do more than drive Donald Trump and his enablers out of power.
I want a party strong enough to take on the hard job of cleaning up the mess theyll leave behind once they are gone, Ms. Warren declared, all but volunteering for the task
Before the trip and since, Ms. Warren and her emissaries have been reaching out to key Democratic officeholders in Iowa, Nevada and South Carolina three states early in the presidential primary calendar making introductions and offering help in the midterm campaign. Altogether, her moves are among the most assertive steps taken by any Democrat to prepare for 2020.
Ms. Warren, 69, now leads a small advance guard of Democrats who appear to be moving deliberately toward challenging President Trump. Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., wielding a political network cultivated over decades, has been reasserting himself as a party leader, while Senators Cory Booker of New Jersey and Kamala Harris of California have emerged as fresher-faced messengers for the midterms. And Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, the runner-up in the 2016 primaries, has been acting like a candidate as he considers anotherrace.

With all the new jobs—particularly in N Nevada & the higher pay, etc, I don’t see the Dems making big inroads here.
In the 2016 Caucuses, attendance was so great that people waited in live for hours just to get into the buildings, and many locations ran out of ballots & had to use the school copying machines to print more ballots. Republican turnout was something like 120% of prior Caucuses in Nevada. My neighbor & I went early, and only had to wait in a 2 wide line about 15 minutes. When we exited, the line was more than twice as long, and now was 4 wide. They were all the way into the football field in our little town.
Heres your ticket:
PeeLoosley with Max Water(s)”””
