Harris only received five percent of Republican votes — less than the six percent Joe Biden won in 2020 when he beat Trump, as well as the seven percent won by Hillary Clinton in 2016 when she lost to him. While Harris won independents and moderates, she did so by smaller margins than Biden did in 2020.
Meanwhile, Harris lost households earning under $100,000, while Democratic turnout collapsed. Votes are still being counted, but Harris is on pace to underperform Biden’s 2020 totals by millions of votes.
So no one is ever allowed to think otherwise. Gotcha.
*The better answer is that she needed to win over center. That is different than Republicans.
What exactly do you think should have been done differently for Harris to activate this “just win with centrists” option? Because it very much seems like that was just tried and failed miserably.
Was just in a very long thread with him, but he seems to think economic issues are exclusively centrist.
Milquetoast liberal blames everyone but themselves, news at 11. Shame they’re named after a good root beer.
Not exclusively no lol, but it’s the center economic policy that will win. UBI for example is a left economic policy and i sincerely doubt UBI will win an election. It will be seen as too much.
