The facts

✅Trump supporters gathered in DC, many of them very mad
✅they attended a Trump speech & he bemoaned the election as stolen (it wasn’t) & told them to “walk down to the Capitol” for the Electoral College vote
✅they did
✅pro-Trump vandals then stormed the Capitol
2) guess we’ll make this a thread

These are not Antifa, BLM, liberals or Democrats. These are Trump supporters

To those who want to pretend this was a genius false-flag operation & say, “well can you be sure every1 was a Trump supporter?” No. There were likely some agents provocateurs from the left. The far right did it to the left in MN but they don’t mention that strib.mn/2ME3w57
But let’s not get sidetracked, this was a pro-Trump act of vandalism in the nation’s Capitol.

Attempts to explain it away as harmless or both-sides it are a mistake

The families of the dead from the invasion of the Capitol sound like those with loved ones who died during a cult ritual

There are four ingredients that would make for a Democratic win in Georgia today, as we outlined in Politico Playbook

First up: strong Black voter turnout, where the overall share of the African-American vote is 30% or more

politi.co/2MrDNwC
2: There are signs that Trump voters in Georgia were underperforming in in the northern part of the state —hence Trump’s rally in Dalton— and among white voters without a college degree.

politi.co/2MrDNwC
3: In the Nov. elections, Biden won 11,779 more Georgia votes than Trump, but Sen. Perdue won 88k more votes than Ossoff.

There were ticket-splitters, esp. white suburbanites. Can the Dems win some of these folks in the runoffs? Will they stay home?

RIP: Gerry Marsden of Gerry and the Peacemakers, famous for “You’ll Never Walk Alone,” which became the anthem for Liverpool Football Club, the singing of which is in the background of 1 of my favorite Pink Floyd songs, “Fearless”

Here’s the original 1/2

Ware County Election Supervisor Carlos Nelson told me this is false: No one has obtained any machine from his office. There was a human-error tabulation issue discovered during the hand recount, the tallies of which were matched by the just-ended machine recount
2/6 According to Nelson: this involved absentee ballots and human error with tabulation equipment, which have nothing to do with the Dominion voting machines that people use to mark their ballots on Election Day at the precinct.
3/6 Ware County elections workers scanned a batch of ballots but there was a jam during the tabulating process. So ballots needed to be re-scanned. The ballots were then rescanned/tabulated, but they forgot to erase the prior scan

How could Trump win Florida?

“Florida is Trump’s state to lose”

It’s not just Hispanic voters, it’s white and black voters, too

“Trump Venezuela policy scores in Florida”

Notice that it’s not just about Cuban voters for Trump; Miami is key. He’s playing on his opponents’ half of the field

Florida has 67 counties but since presidential campaigns are marketing efforts that orient spending by media market, here are the preliminary 2020 election results broken down by those 10 regions (thanks @DavidCypkin for the graphics!)

Who will win Florida? I really don't know. My feeling changes by the minute, interview & data set, the latter 2 of which I've swum in. I can see it being very close or near 3 (a Florida landslide lol). I default to "very close" because of interviews & data, inc. poll avgs
2/4

As for FL polls, if you don't have a 1k sample w/Hispanic oversample, be very wary of relying on its toplines. Many don't provide party breaks (% of Rs, Ds & Is voting for the candidates). Use polls as a guidepost, but pay attn to its partisan/electorate composition, to
3/4 FL has a D+1 electorate right now (Ds cast 39% of ballots; Rs 38%). Rs are expected to change that Election Day but by how much?

Ds think Biden wins R+1 & R+2 electorate. Rs say no to the latter maybe to the former.

Historically, Ds win in D+ electorates, Rs win in R+ years
