“It wasn’t because Biden voters shifted to Trump—but because so many of them stayed home.”

We must not repeat this same mistake again. Remember to always vote in every election and consider volunteering to knock on doors. It can make a difference. There are elections that are decided with just a small number of votes.

    One things was clearly rooted in evidence, the reduced participation on voting.

    I feel like the rest might have been a bit more Shakey ground.

    In 2020, the working poor were largely not going into jobs and also had easiest access to voting. They were both easiest to vote and everyone was pissed that the pandemic sucked, so they were able to and motivated to vote.

      The working poor put lives on the line going to work at McDonald’s and hospitals, then when they asked for living wages and sane schedules, they were unskilled labor again.
