Think we need those rates to tighten just slightly.

2020 Overall NC turnout was 75.35% and Mecklenburg was 72%, so it still trailed by 3ish%. But to make up ground we do need some tightening, but probably not a whole lot.
Does Mecklenburg have a more mobile, transient population than the rest of North Carolina?

It’s anecdotal, but I know numerous recent UNC alums whose first jobs were in Charlotte. They wanted to be in NYC or DC or Miami or London. At the first opportunity, they left Charlotte.

Are some still on the voter rolls in Mecklenburg and they’ve moved elsewhere?
 
the man knows his shit

Reading that gave me the first chills about the potential result I have had
Yes, but his prediction was not exactly on solid grounds. I saw that as "eh, coin flip, I'll choose Kamala because Dems typically get it done."

For my part, I just don't care about Nevada much. I don't think it's going to be the tipping point state for us, or even necessary to the coalition. It really only comes into play if Kamala loses PA but wins either GA or NC. That seems an unlikely combo with the information we have.
 
Serious question. Why am I STILL getting texts asking for money? The ones I've gotten the last few days aren't from the Harris/Watz campaign. But hasn't TV time been bought, fliers printed, volunteers recruited, etc. I just got this one, and I'm annoyed by the content:

(damn it) Kamala will LOSE in Pa. if we can't afford our voter turnout teams! Rush $20 Blah blah blah and we'll TRIPLE it.

What does that even mean?

There are still ongoing turnout and phone banking efforts. Still ad buys being made, probably. And importantly, resources are likely to be needed for post-election day legal fights.

Campaigns borrow money. THey need to earn the capital to pay the loans back.

Yes but all that stuff is purchased on credit. Plus, a lot of organizations like to bank funds for the future.
 
Folks, may I present to you the absolute craziest fucking...uh.....endorsement...is it an endorsement?...of Kamala Harris you will ever see. I laughed so many times reading this.

OK. Got it. That all makes sense, and I guess I knew it. Just seems like there's a better way to phrase than "Damn it. Kamala will LOSE!"

I'm not really here for a lot of shrill language.

I saw him on MSNBC and he was about as hedged as a man can be, said it’s a true toss up and he’s just throwing the dice in Kamala’s direction.

I'm still getting them, as well. I guess when I deleted that tweet, I doomed Kamala to losing in PA. Sorry, y'all.

Yeah they are not targeting the brightest people with those ads I think. Just using a large shotgun approach and hoping to get some response.

Me either, but I'm confident that all campaigns use that sort of urgent language because it's proven to raise the most money.

Azealia Banks is bat-shit crazy, but I guess that's a plus when you're able to create the first endorsement to double as surrealist art.
