On Nicole Wallace yesterday they were discussing the NY Times poll and dived down into one question about trustworthiness where Harris has over a 10 point advantage (maybe it was 15?) Anyway comparing it to 2016, Harris and Clinton had similar favorability ratings, but in 2016 Clinton and Trump were rated about the same in trustworthiness. The trust advantage could really help Harris in 2024's election.

The above is a really interesting perspective on the differences between male and female politicians in general and between Trump and Harris in particular. It raises the issue of "protection" in a way that I, as a male, never really thought about. It also raises what a narrow path female politicians, like Harris, must walk.

ETA: The author makes the point that men providing protection to women far too often provide a protection racket, as in, pay for my protection or I'm the one you'll need to be protected from.

I sure hope that Harris can win this without needing any of the states affected by Helene or Milton. I can foresee people creating a disinformation campaign about “unfair voting” due to the hurricane if North Carolina, Georgia or Florida goes blue…
 


"... Take Pennsylvania, one of the most important swing states, with 19 electoral votes and a margin of victory of only 80,550 votes in the 2020 presidential election. Even a small shift among the state’s roughly 800,000 Polish Americans and more than 100,000 Ukrainian Americans could have a decisive effect.

... Two Democratic activists—former U.S. Rep. Tom Malinowski (who was born in Poland) and Maryland State Sen. James Rosapepe (with whom I worked during the 1992 Clinton presidential campaign)—have established a political action committee named America’s Future Majority Fund. The group runs ads focusing on Russia’s aggression, wrapping its pro-Harris message in Cold War-era realism and mentioning both Reagan and former President John F. Kennedy in an effort to reach centrist and conservative voters.

More recently, Harris campaign ads targeted at Pennsylvania have evoked Polish heroes and focused on the long history of Russian imperialism. The campaign is also supporting a bus tour scheduled for mid-October that will visit Polish and Eastern European communities in the Pennsylvanian towns of Doylestown and Wilkes-Barre. The latter is in Luzerne County, which is the only county in the United States with a plurality of Polish Americans. ..."
