A creative team can make the case.
If they get beyond "polling"

I've been beating the drum lately, pissing people off, that polls ... here's a repost in part:

There's only one thing that the billion dollar computer models, the tech bros and money folks don't see.
PEOPLE

The will of strong and determined people who actually believe in truth, justice and the American way as exemplified by people like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, to rise above the ordinary, the expected and the banal to do extraordinary and magnificent things.

POLLS, even with their spooky, psychic, AI-driven (making them perfect beyond God) (1) powers, fail to see the unexpected, and people breaking barriers and rising above the ordinary and expected is what true progress is all about.

Now, that said/ranted, a graphic can easily portray your point.

GUNS EXPORTED,
VIOLENCE EXPLODES
PEOPLE FLEE

Send it to DNC, but I suspect that posting a graphic here (even if I have to create one) might catch the eyes of someone. In my web searches, DU pops to the top many times.

Thanks for the great idea.
Helpful if it succeeds.
Nothing lost if it flops.



(1) sarcasm for those slow to clear the cobwebs on an incredible Monday Morning.
