This election cycle has been an “emotional roller-coaster” for me! I guess others two. Crazy polls, crazy politicians, crazy electorate. As we get closer to Election Day , there are two developments that should concern us all
1: It appears the Undecided and independents are going towards the Republicans The reasons appear to be Crime and Inflation. Of course the Republicans will only make those problems worse but we lost the messaging war. Don’t believe me, ask Gavin Newsom of California
We put all our eggs in the Abortion issue basket and while it resonated , with many, Inflation was a greater issue, which we allowed the Republicans to define. Again, they have no soluton: tax cuts on the wealthy, cutting entitlements , Neither are popular but we ceded it to them
2: The second issue is Youth Turnout: While previous polls said 59% of young voters planned to vote, they yet to do so
I am not sure if they are waiting to the last minute or lost interest but it could be a problem Democrats are turning out in droves and could mitigate a bad situation. Add a significant youth turnout and , that could be a game changer. But it has to happen
