Thanks for this... Yeah, I think the Dems need to run a campaign of "we're going to unfuck the election system first and foremost" (and have a good plan) to get a lot of the couch sitters to vote.
There is very little point for ANYONE to stay if they don't have to (unless they want to fight for freedom like our ancestors had to). If you have a way of escaping, definitely take it.
Let's take over the DNC and kick these Republicans out

Man... That AI is going to be so fucked up when it gains sentience
Georgia: Biden won by 11,779, Kamala lost by 115,100= -126,879 difference ... Trump 2020 2,461,854 vs 2024 2,663,117= +201,263... So Biden no shows wouldn't have changed this one (assuming they stayed home and didn't vote for Trump)... If they did go vote for Trump then only 74,384 were actual no shows, also wouldn't have made a difference.
North Carolina: Biden lost by 74,483, Kamala lost by 183,048= -105,565 difference... Trump 2020 2,758,775 vs 2024 2,898,428 = +139,653 So Biden no shows wouldn't have changed this one (assuming they stayed home and didn't vote for Trump)... If they did go vote for Trump then only 34,088 were actual no shows, also wouldn't have made a difference.
Michigan: Biden won by 154,188, Kamala lost by 80,618= -234,806 difference... Trump 2020 vs 2024= +154,795= So Biden no shows would have changed this one (assuming they stayed home and didn't vote for Trump)... If they did go vote for Trump then only 80,011 were actual no shows, also wouldn't have made a difference.
Alright, I concede... In only some of the swing states would the Biden no shows have changed the results. The electoral college is garbage.
I think finding out whether the Biden no shows actually stayed home or went out to vote for Trump is important. And the people that definitely stayed home, why?
Either way, Dems should stop trying to court the right who might swing Dem one election but then swing maga the next... Court the left, at least they'll only swing between showing up or not showing up. As much as libs like to say not voting= voting for Trump, it's far less of a vote for Trump than an ACTUAL vote for Trump.
They didn't show up for him either.
To be fair, they didn't show up for him either.
I'm sure we could break it down by state... But the missing voters is THE thing that swung this election. Figuring out the true reason those people sat this one out should be everyone's top priority.
Millions of people did vote for Bernie, and he absolutely would have won the general... Clinton and her minions rigged the primary. The right doesn't care about policy, but the left, especially the moral "Bernie" left absolutely care about policy. The sexists who can't bring themselves vote for a woman are right-wing voters and always have been. The idea that the left is filled with blatant sexists is delusional.
