47. The MSNBC hosts and contributers are pushing that meme...

Dec 2018

specifically Joy Reid's panel on Saturday and Chris Matthews' panel last night. Look for the segment with Jason Johnson. They're saying that if a POC or a woman isn't on the ticket it will (not might), depress turnout. I'm also seeing it among some very prominent twitter users that many here on DU may be familiar with.

If you look up and down this thread you even see it.
