Had black voters shown up for Clinton in the same numbers they showed up for Obama in 2012, she'd have carried Michigan by 1.5 points, almost certainly Pennsylvania too, probably Wisconsin.
Enthusiastic African-American support for the 2020 ticket will lock Trump out of the industrial Midwest - and put him on defense in Georgia.
In 2012. African Americans turned out at a higher rate than whites for the first and only time in US history. Obama delivered that. And his would-be successors are talking about him in a tone of "Mmm, I don't know ... "
Meanwhile, for twenty years after 1988, Republican debates went: "Reagan. Reagan. More Reagan. Did I mention how much I resemble Reagan? Reagan. And in conclusion ... Reagan."

How big a deal is the China ag announcement? China bought 17% of US ag exports - more than Canada or Mexico.
Until recently, China was Number 1 market for US soybean exports, buying more than half the exported soybean crop.
China was the number 2 destination for US hay; number 3 for US dairy and poultry; number 4 for pork and beef; number 5 for wheat.

In 1936, Franklin Roosevelt's campaign manager made the mistake of describing FDR's Republican opponent, Kansas Governor Alf Landon as coming from "a typical prairie state." Compared to what we have recently heard, this might seem mild language, but it appalled FDR, who wrote ...
... that no part of the country should ever be referred to except with some "laudatory adjective." Had the campaign manager spoken of "one of our splendid prairie states" all would have been well. But "the word 'typical' coming from a New Yorker is meat for the opposition."
Roosevelt carried Kansas in 1936.

Thread on #Pennsylvania #pa7

Since everyone seems to be an expert on my state lately, I thought I would set the record straight on what exactly is going on here.
First, a little on me. I am an older millennial and I have lived in Pennsylvania literally my entire life. My grandfathers were a coal miner and a steel worker. My father a public school teacher.
I have been peripherally involved in politics for a long time, phone banked for HRC and now help all campaigns locally through the Dem party.

64/Since the FCC repealed it in 2017, @KamalaHarris has been a fierce advocate for net neutrality & is supporting a new bill to restore it. #Kamala2020
65/1 of many takeaways @KamalaHarris got from Howard University was the importance of embracing & celebrating Black identities & providing a sense of belonging & leadership to traditionally oppressed groups. It’s time to do that nationally. #Kamala2020 latimes.com/politics/la-na…

Alabama your turn.

With the Alabama Election Next Week what better time than to look at what happened in the 2016 Election

This one is fascinating

Thread
Lets start with the State. Not the worst looking graph. Notice the upturn in the line for Trump as Precinct Size goes to the far right or the largest precincts.
Remember that State graphs usually don’t tell the full picture. Being a combination of all the County Graphs they sometimes look rather normal.

Lets show you what I mean.
