Yes indeedy, emmaverybo!

We see the polls.. but, it's great to read it like this.. what some of us imagined was going on with these voters.. because it's what a lot of us have been thinking too. Biden has an excellent resume for voters to get to know him.. It's more than "name recognition".. it's what he's done to achieve that.

I see some people bring up that Biden has tried 3 times to run for President like it's bad thing.. but that was before he's had 8 years as President Obama's valued VP.. that's priceless experience and qualifications to add to his resume.

Bears repeating..

"..they know and trust the Scranton native from his long tenure as a Delaware senator and as Barack Obama’s vice president, they find his incremental policy proposals realistic and they think he can wink"

And, this..

Salt of the earth, back bone of our democracy, a multi-racial constituency of the working class. A constituency that represents America. That is who supports Biden.

Mahalo nui loa, emma

Well said, Rep Kurt Schrader! This is his District #5 in Oregon..

KS has been in Congress since 2009..

Oregon's 5th congressional district represents Oregon's central coast through Salem, north to the southern Portland suburbs, and east to the summit of Mount Hood. It includes Lincoln, Marion and Polk Counties, most of Clackamas and Tillamook Counties, plus parts of Benton and Multnomah Counties.

Mahalo, Goth!

My daughter lives in Portland and they have a home in Hood River.. beautiful part of our country!

Good to hear!

In dozens of interviews, from parades and union rallies to black churches and political picnics, working-class Democrats who support Mr. Biden explained their views in practical terms: they know and trust the Scranton native from his long tenure as a Delaware senator and as Barack Obama’s vice president, they find his incremental policy proposals realistic and they think he can win

That's what those who call us "arrogant and insulting" for thinking Biden can win and beat trump don't understand.

local newspaper that once endorsed Stefanik lowers the boom;

EDITORIAL: Stefanik is sacrificing her integrity

Things have changed for Stefanik, who now embraces a bad president to safeguard her job. She no longer gets flustered by tough questions — mostly, she doesn’t give anyone the chance to ask them. Instead, she parrots the Trump line on Fox News and lets her attack-dog spokesman argue with reporters on Twitter.

If her integrity has been sacrificed, that isn’t worth a shrug. She calls for the whistleblower to be outed and avoids talking about the way Trump held military aid to Ukraine hostage to his demand for an investigation of Joe Biden.

She will differ with Trump’s policies here and there. But when it comes to critical questions of presidential character and patriotism and job performance, she is a loyal mouthpiece for Trump’s talking points.

That's ok.. I'd rather have Khizr Khan's Endorsement for Joe Biden..

Biden Wins Endorsement of Gold Star Family

"I'm supporting Joe Biden for President because of the America he stands for and the one he will fight for — the country that my son, Humayun Khan, believed in and fought for so bravely," said Khan, referencing his son, a Muslim American soldier killed while serving in Iraq in 2004.

He continued, "Vice President Biden has always put the country above himself. From the days after he was first elected Senator to his time serving alongside President Obama, Vice President Biden has never wavered in his commitment to our country. President Donald Trump, on the other hand, has consistently chosen self over country, seeking the aid of totalitarian governments to sway elections and undermine our rule of law to serve his self-interest."
