The 2020 thread....

Well, I would think cause it’s not that popular with the voters he needs?

I mean he needs disgruntled Trump supporters, people in the middle...

But do we really think supporting pot is going to get people to the polls?

I litterly just said this
So are independents. A majority of Republicans favor it now too. It motivates progressives, young people, and Black Americans to vote. Put it on the ballot, and it’s proved a sure way to boost turnout for supportive politicians.
Those seem like the people he wants to get to the polls

another tidbit from that article
In 2018, top Democrats credited a legalization ballot initiative in Michigan with boosting turnout and producing the biggest blue wave in the country—winning races for governor, Senate, attorney general, and secretary of state, along with flipping two congressional seats and multiple state-legislature seats

So yeah, seems to get everyone to the polls
seems like a no-brainer to me...but I'm obviously biased

Yeah I changed my post

Maybe he is out of touch

On the other hand they have to be micro targeting a small segment of the population and maybe they don’t think it plays well there? I mean think about the voters you need to ensure a victory...I assume that’s what they are thinking about....


1% of voters in

PA
WI
MI
NV

2-3%
FL
AZ

4-5%
OH
NC


Something like that...they are not using the turn out your base strategy as much as the turn Trump voters, maybe?

So it’s more like how does an issue play with that small sliver than how does it poll with everyone

Or they are out of touch

Manhattan DA gets Trump tax returns. 7-2 ruling.


Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh today rule against Trump on Manhattan DA subpoena.

although...someone said
this means the NY grand jury won't get docs until after the election.
Loss for Trump on the face, but win for him in terms of allowing more delay.

In Trump v. Mazars, Trump wins this stage of dispute over congressional subpoenas to lenders and accountant for president’s financial records as #SCOTUS, 7-2, sends case back to lower courts to take account of separation of powers concerns

Perhaps more interesting in the long run is McGirt coming down 5-4 for the Native American tribe. They tried to cabin this a bit about major crimes but Gorsuch left it a little open still.
