Echo Chamber posted:I'm actually quite surprised how much race baiting there is in the Republican lawn signs along Route 27. I don't think they're false flags. Surprised the NJ GOP is making sanctuaries the hill they'll die on. Are they expecting racism to help them in the down ballot? the nj gop has been under a federal consent decree since 1982 over racial intimidation and ratfuckery apart from gov bobby bacala it's literally all they have

Lightning Knight posted:tl:dr high black turnout helped Northam a great deal in Virginia, and could provide a path to victory for Jones. northam did about as well with black voters as hillary last year (gillespie gained 3 points over trump) but significantly better among whites, while turnout was roughly the same i mean sure, match presidential election turnout in an off-off year election and the dems stand a chance, but that's not really a major revelation

Lightning Knight posted:It’s not that it’s revelatory, it’s that it offers hope. reminds me there was an article on either 538 or maybe from william frey at brookings from before last year's election positing that faster-growing southern states (va, nc, ga, fl, tx in roughly that order) are going to become the next democratic stronghold while the rust belt becomes solidly republican

axeil posted:edit: in actual news, I just heard the electorate was 30% black. Is that good or bad for Alabama? pretty good but jones will need to pick off at least 25% of whites when democrats normally only get about 15% in alabama

Quorum posted:The tweet I posted up thread about how the Jones campaign built a well-oiled get-out-the-vote machine from scratch in the course of a few months is important, because I guarantee you the Jones campaign did not do that on its own. Something like that requires expertise, and it requires money. But those are things the national party is well-equipped to offer, effectively parachuting in and handing the campaign tools rather than funding ads and running its own media strategy from Washington. that had more to do with joe trippi than any national dem orgs, which intentionally avoided making a big push in alabama

Grammarchist posted:Are there any likely GOP votes in the Virginia Senate for Medicaid Expansion as of now? Kinda curious to see if "eligibility requirements" is a concession Northam's trying to sell them on to get the expansion through. if he's actually promising to privatize it then he can probably nab a couple folks who have stakes in managed care companies or related services
