21. I think it's far too easy to cheat with electronic voting

and votes need to be hand counted. Period.

I also think that there are lots of reasons people may have decided not to vote for Kamala and voted for the rest of the ticket. Racism. Sexism. Protest vote over Gaza.

We did not have a primary. That hurt us.

I knew people who were going door to door trying to get the word out for people to vote democrat. They did the same thing in 2020 for Biden. This time, they reported what they saw as a surprising shift towards Trump in the responses they were getting when they talked to people, especially from Black and Latino men. So while I was disappointed when I saw the results, I wasn't really surprised, because it matched what I had been hearing.
