The lesson from Louisiana is clear: Dem victories are NOT mostly about flipping Trump folks like Mabel down at the diner or whatever...they are about driving base turnout in blue cities w/in red states. Black turnout was up 15-30 percent in Caddo, E Baton Rouge and NOLA.
...and college educated whites and POC in purplish suburbs too, but NOT flipping small town/rural or exurban whites...
If Dems focus on turnout in Detroit, Flint, Lansing, E Lansing, Philly, Pittsburgh, Milwaukee, Madison, etc., MI, PA and WI are entirely out of reach for the GOP. There are not enough of these small town Mayberry white folks to overcome mass turnout in cities, college towns
