Trump's rallies have not helped in other places at all - not in Alabama, not in PA, not in Ohio, not in West Virginia.

In swing districts, the rallies make Democrats come out in large numbers -- they help us and McCreedy lost by 7 in a +12 red district so we picked up 5%.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
