Why the popular vote will matter so much this time…. In the 2020 U.S. presidential election, Joe Biden won with a total of 81,283,501 votes, while Donald Trump received 74,223,975 votes. This means Biden won the popular vote by approximately 7 million votes, with a margin of about 4.4 percentage points (Biden received 51.3% of the vote compared to Trump’s 46.8%). In terms of the Electoral College, Biden won 306 electoral votes, while Trump secured 232. Obviously the whole game is the electoral college but this one’s gonna be close maybe closer. Having the popular vote count be as strong or stronger than Biden will matter when we’re fighting it out after she wins the electoral count to certify in the states - post-election. It will discourage judges from fraudulently overturning the will of the people at the states, and it will make the narrative that this is “the American voter versus Trump.” Which it very much would be.
In a razor close race, love seeing that our side is more enthusiastic and more organized: “In one potential indicator of turnout, the candidates are close in voter enthusiasm -- 88% of Harris supporters are enthusiastic about her, as are 85% of Trump's about him. In another, Harris maintains a slight edge in voter contact, with Americans overall 5 points more apt to have been contacted by her campaign than by Trump's.” #KamalaHararis

Good note from Josh Marshall: the organizers most close to the ground know - this is razor close, but we are not losing. We have a very clear and direct path - if we do the work, we WILL win. #WhenWeFightWeWin is a perfect slogan for the moment. "And for what it’s worth, I keep in close touch with numerous high level campaign operatives in the swing states and I do not sense panic or pessimism from them. They all know it could go either way but I don’t think they think they’re losing." Fantasies of Control -
Good advice here.
