Shimrra Jamaane posted:What battleground states have universal early voting? I know that Florida has no questions asked absentee ballots because that's how I vote. My wife and I get our ballots a few weeks before election day and there's just a box to check that says "hey yeah send me one of these next election too" so I don't even have to leave the house. A lot of my coworkers do the same. So at least in my county in Florida (Leon county which is where Tallahassee is) has lots of people early voting.

I'm honestly surprised we haven't seen more video out there of Trump just completely blowing off a reporter's question, given his love hate of the media.

A lot of my coworkers do the same. You don't even have to do that if you want to early vote in Florida. Just go to one of your county's designated early voting locations and physically vote on a whim 8-15 days(depending on how big a jackass your supervisor of elections is) before the election.

He was ready to toss his campaign staff, the only change was also tossing his transition team. That makes a lot of sense! Thanks.

I'm here to not understand that it doesn't matter how much power or money or influence you have and that sexism, like racism, are so ingrained that a white man in your position would still have it better.

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Thats a real Clinton favorable list. GOTV in Ohio, Florida, and NC and it's over before election day. You work with local organizations, like churches for Souls to the Polls, to get people to the polls. Additionally you compile a list of local voters for your field offices to hound the poo poo out of until they vote. The list is created using various databases and statistical models to determine voters who are going to vote Democratic. As election day approaches you do a combination of phone calls, text messages, emails, direct mail and door knocking to determine who has voted, who will vote, who needs help getting out to vote, and who needs encouragement as well as what that encouragement is to go out and vote. You also use local media and media personalities who are more demographically targeted to implore listeners/followers to vote. While doing that you further refine your lists through those contacts with voters and encourage them to help you by getting their friends and family out to vote. I believe they can check to see if you've voted, because I remember getting frequent reminders from Obama to go vote that stopped as soon as I did vote. Bernie volunteers texted me a couple times before I texted back that I was voting.

Finally booted up Facebook today and the HONY profile on Clinton is all over the place and even people who I've personally seen post negative Clinton stuff at least 30 times a second for months straight saying, "yeah it's true, you kind of do have to be a stone cold bitch and you just get used to people hating you for it" and whatnot An excellent piece. Remember how much attention their takedown of Trump got? People eat this poo poo up and I hope the campaign uses it because it's really, really good stuff for showing her human side

Boxcar posted:Hillary has a higher average speaking fee than Bill Clinton who is known as one of the best and I believe she received the most votes ever in a primary. As I said, sure, she gets sexist attacks, but to create some "I'm a girl who has no role models and can't act like the men when speaking" fiction that this is holding her back in any way is creating some kind of persecution myth. She is the best in the game today by any measurable statistic - stop having to turn her into the constant victim when she is the constant top performer. You just said Hillary has a "persecution myth." This is a woman who has been target no 1 since I was a toddler.

Hollismason posted:I'm not saying he did but being dismissive of them is kind of ridiculous. There's not enough evidence to prove her case either way, and while normally you might be inclined to listen and believe, it's surrounded by tons of other cases that are provably false. That might not be totally fair to her but it's undeniable that it's going to affect things. Especially when people lump her possibly legitimate case in with the obvious frauds in order to attack the Clintons. 7c Nickel fucked around with this message at 03:42 on Sep 9, 2016 |

Wasn't the new Jane Doe one the one Jezebel did an article on where they revealed the story was being shopped around by anti-Trump PAC and they were refusing to let anyone interview the accuser even anonymously and all that kind of poo poo? Like, when even Gawker/Jezebel is going "Yeah, this is just a bad attempt at a political hit on Trump" it probably has about zero merit, even if Trump is actually human scum in general.

Eifert Posting posted:You just said Hillary has a "persecution myth." This is a woman who has been target no 1 since I was a toddler. No - that some of her supporters seem to love embracing a persecution myth on her behalf. The Attack: Hillary is a cold speaker Reply that moved one goon to tears: She is a victim of a sexist society and is forced to trailblaze a path in which she vaguely wishes she had it as easy as a man, but can deal. Reply accused of trolling: If she is such a cold speaker, explain why she is one of the highest paid speakers and has inspired more people than ever to vote for her as their presidential nominee I think this mentality is why Trump still has whatever little chance he has of winning. Democrats need to say why Hillary is great - not how she is overcoming a sexist society, especially in a field she is already pretty much number one in.

TheOneAndOnlyT posted:You do realize that the number of votes Hillary receives isn't some linear function of how good of a speaker she is, right? It's not as simple as BETTER SPEAKER = MORE VOTES FOR. Also our population has been increasing, so "most votes ever" is more a function of time than enthusiasm.

NippleFloss posted:So just to be clear you believe that if a woman is successful then she cannot possibly have suffered from sexism? Do you also believe that rich black folks have never suffered from racism? I said multiple times that people attacked her with sexist attacks. I said that arguing that she is a victim of sexism in regards to public speaking is a losing strategy and demeaning to her ability. Playing the victim card in a field where you are the top even if you have been attacked for it is a non-starter with most people. She is a story of success - not a story of still wishing she could have it as easy as the boys and it gets her down, but she'll march on. Edit: money paid for speeches and votes I think is a decent measurement of ability when speaking is how the public pretty much knows her. How would you judge it? Media stories?

Boxcar posted:No - that some of her supporters seem to love embracing a persecution myth on her behalf. Michael Bay is one of the highest paid film directors. I wouldn't say that makes Michael Bay a great movie director. You never hear anyone claim Hillary is a stirring orator or anything of the sort. People hire her to talk because she knows what she's talking about and she's an inspirational person, not because she's MLK Jr. on the mic. You're attaching ideals to her that just do not apply for the reasons you think they do.

Nessus posted:How about this: Hillary is doing well but suffers from some burdens due to her gender and the way it interacts with cultural expectations which has made her course more difficult and in some ways limits her options (for instance, she has to think twice about getting all Passionate in speeches, lest this get parsed as "Yelling Woman"). It may even have some tertiary spinoff advantages - for instance, if Trump does try to bully her at the debates, it will probably rebound on him a way that it would not have, were he addressing Harold Rodham Clinton. That ends up being the middle ground of everyone gets advantages and disadvantages due to circumstances. Why not just state the reasons why she has been effective throughout her career in fields where speaking is highly valued (Senator, Secretary of State, Presidential Nominee, lawyer) - that she's bad is a myth. She's not an inspirational speaker, but there's no method with which to judge her as a poor speaker. Edit: If Michael Bay was paid the most and won the most peoples' votes for best director over decades, I'd say the public judges him as one of the best directors Boxcar fucked around with this message at 04:02 on Sep 9, 2016 |
