55. It's all about turn out now

Mon Sep 14, 2020, 01:17 AM

Sep 2020

The gazillion $ that Bloomberg is investing in the Florida race is important in aiming directly at Hispanic voters and carpet bombing the state with messaging. But in the end, it's getting our voters to the polls in massive numbers. If the strategy works and Joe Biden sweeps Florida, the national race/electoral college is won because there is no path for Trump without Florida, not with the numbers coming out of the Midwest all favoring Joe Biden. The demographics are on our side because the demographics are who we are as a country.

And who we are as a country, a people, is what this election is all about. United we are strong, unbeatable. We need to remember that. We need to make it an indisputable fact on November 3rd.

Btw, those 50+ percentiles are . . . absolutely beautiful.
