I don’t know either but I mean in general, anything that makes voting convenient Republicans fight against.

After spending billions to avoid a repeat of 2016, the tech giants are careening from crisis to crisis as their foes change tactics.

Trump’s base is so cult like and so mindwarped, that we’re discussing a “close” race while the incumbent presides over the worst disaster and economic downturn in American history.

He'll lose. Things only look closer because not all the independents have left him yet.

Fair enough

I don’t know if this is good or bad just because Hillary also had an early lead there in 2016.

On the other hand, that was an open, non-incumbent election. Trump losing as incumbent winner of that state is pretty bad.

Just listened to this.

This is a good look for Joe. Bring in competent people, discuss strategy, and sound empathetic to the current situation.

Its like listening to FDR fireside.

Tony Evers has good favor ability as Governor there. It could help Joe in the general election.

The only thing that concerns me is the enthusiasm gap. For most people (myself included) Joe was their second choice, hopefully that doesn't impact turnout because whatever the polls say, the margins will be tight

Last time I checked an unethused vote for Biden (eg Me) and an enthused vote for Biden (eg Warren Moon) count the same...

Enthusiasm is a terrible metric to go by, it says nothing about whether or not somebody plans on voting. There's connotation happiness or excitement with the word, which seems irrelevant to the current circumstance. Trump increases our collective anxiety and getting rid of him is a relief. Biden has routinely polled the best against Trump nationally and in battleground states, that's why he's done do well in these primaries and turned out new voters.

Biden is winning with prospective voters who dislike both him and Trump, which is a demo that Clinton lost in 2016. I think that's important. Moreover, simply asking people "if they intend to vote and for whom?" would yield useful data.
