When it comes to the Virginia gubernatorial race, the emphasis should be on base voters, not swing voters.
John,
We have less than a year until the Ohio general election on November 8, 2022, and we’re just 6 months away from the Democratic primary election on May 3, 2022.
Now is the time to start making key decisions on which Democratic candidate will be able to fare well in the general election. John, we’re facing far-right GOP candidates who want to infringe on our voting rights, reproductive rights, and more.
If we play by the same-old rules we will lose Ohio, John. Can you make your first donation to our grassroots, bold, passionate campaign today? Your support will go straight to our voter mobilization efforts.
Take a look at this brand new Intelligencer article:
Writer Ed Kilgore explains that Glenn Youngkin’s victory in the Virginia gubernatorial race in November hinged on base voter turnout not swing voters!
“Now comes some more granular data from political scientists Seth Hill and Dan Hopkins via FiveThirtyEight, and it seems to confirm that poor turnout by Democratic base voters defeated Terry McAuliffe more than ambivalent swing voters… off-presidential-year falloff for Democrats could well persist (unless hard-to-turn-out voters, particularly young people, who lean Democratic, are galvanized by subsequent events.”

We need to be running Democratic candidates who can excite young voters, Black voters, and women — folks we need to turn up to the polls in overwhelming numbers. We cannot win running the same corporate Democrats that have lost these voters time and time again. We need someone whose lived experience and strong progressive policies will motivate more voters than ever before. That’s Morgan Harper. She can bring out the Democratic voters we need to flip this seat blue.
If you are able, can you make a donation today? Any amount helps give our grassroots campaign the resources we need to start December strong.
