I didn't even put 2 and 2 together. Sri got pub for this video:

“They said don't bother with the Asian community because they don't vote,” Kulkarni recalled. “My answer was maybe they don't vote because we don't bother.”

Turtle Mitch is up in 2020. Who’s going to run against him? Lamar Alexander from TN is also up. Who will run against him?

I doubt Mitch McConnell is going anywhere, Kentucky sure loves hardcore right wingers. Him, Rand Paul, Thomas Massie, Matt Bevin, etc.

If the radio spots she's running on black radio at home in STL are any indication, then yes. She's simply running on ACA to appeal to black voters.
I'm saying! You cannot run on attracting Trump voters through moderation AND try to appeal to black voters. You pick one and die on that hill.

Not saying you're wrong but she's in Missouri. She kind of has to walk the line.

Missouri has moved further and further to the right in the past decade. Trump won Missouri by 18%, she has to appeal to Trumptards in order to win. Black people are only 11.6% of Missouri population. 82.8% of Missouri's population is White people, most of whom voted for Trump.

Lot of focus on early voting but got to tamper your expectations on that. Hopefully, it's a sign of increased voting overall but the other possibility is that otherwise election day voting has simply been shifted to early votes thus the same chasm existed in previous elections but just people voted at a different time. I hope it's the former. :blessed:
