tiejc Posted August 25 Posted August 25 Just remembered that Ted Cruz Cancun fiasco was in 2021, if only Texans would make him pay for that this year
FameFatale Posted August 25 Posted August 25 I'm really thinking about canvassing after Labor Day. Has anyone here ever done it? Any tips for volunteering? 4

Just remember not to take the vitriol from people personally. They hate democrats/Kamala, not you. It can be emotionally and mentally draining, but ultimately, they have no problems directly with you. And cherish the good interactions— they'll carry you a long way. If you succeed with 2 people and fail with 20, those 2 people will make a much bigger difference than trying to sit and argue with the other 20. Save your mental health and just move on if someone is giving you a hard time. 2 3
Lil Mistee Posted August 25 Posted August 25 Weird and possibly dumb question, if trump people write in trump x rfk jr on their ballots is it a vote for trump or is it thrown out? I see quiet a few trumpers on tweeter saying they're gonna write that in 1

I see quiet a few trumpers on tweeter saying they're gonna write that in I think it would count as a "write in" vote and takes away votes from Trump. The bubble by the name has to be filled in for the machine to correctly count it. 2
Armani? Posted August 25 Posted August 25 Young Male Vote in 2022 Midterms were Overall - 53% Dem/42% Rep 18 - 29 White Men 49%Dem/45% Rep 18 - 29 Hispanic Men 56% Dem/40% Rep 18 - 29 Black Men N/A from too low turnout but based on turnout for others it has to be at least 80% Dem In November I expect young White Men to flip in support of Trump in November. Maybe 52% Trump/45% Kamala. Young Hispanic Men & Young Black Men will probably stay relatively the same. Young Black Men may likely crack 85% or more for Kamala. May get young Hispanic Men up to 60% Dem again also https://circle.tufts.edu/latest-research/youth-are-not-monolith-how-different-young-people-voted-2022 1

Not sure about the state specifics. 1

I did texting in 2020 and it's a good way to help if you don't like talking on the phone to strangers. I think they have trainings you can go to before you start doing whatever 1 3

Armani? Posted August 26 Posted August 26 If the POC turnout is similar to 2020, Young White men flipping to Trump will be cancelled out. It would be a majority of around 55% Young Men voting Kamala Young White Men - 61% of young men 52%Trump/45 Young Black Men - 11% of young men 85%Kamala/11 Young Hispanic Men - 20% of young men 60%Kamala/38 Other POC Vote Male - 8% 65% Kamala/33 Edit - Oops, young White men have higher share of vote. Still didn't change the tally that much though. Drops one point to 55% Kamala leading with young men 2

ClashAndBurn Posted August 26 Posted August 26 The Democrats' Trump, but somehow even less successful If she's the nominee for governor in 2026, there's no point in turning out again, since she'll get btfo'ed by probably double digits. Ossoff is getting blown out too, so that would just be even more reason to just tune out. 6
