A lot of what needs to be done is making sure that the Harris win is large enough that you can’t easily claim that a handful of ballots should be tossed and change the outcome. That means:
- Check your voter registration — part of the Republican strategy has long been invalidating registrations so people can’t vote
- Volunteer — nothing in the world quite like talking to people.
- Donate — money is used for everything from ads to voter turnout operations
- Organize; be prepared to turn out with others in your community to actively object to any effort to ignore your votes
I talked to a lot of people in 2020, the younger voters absolutely thought that’s what they were voting for. You underestimate how low-information the average american is. They associated free healthcare or defunding the police with democrats, and thought Biden was running on those things.
Yeah, apologies, but I don’t tend to believe personal accounts given over the internet. Just out of general principle.
OK, get your own anecdotes, ask random, apolitical coworkers “Who are you voting for, and what policies or actions will they implement that you like. What policies or actions do you expect <opposition> to implement that you don’t like”.
It’s no longer 2020, so I’m sure the specifics have changed, but I’m certain you’ll find incoherent ideas very loosely related to reality.
Sure, you can find anecdotes for anything. But anybody expecting defund the police out of a moderate like Biden was ignorant, which is fairly uncommon among actual progressives. Dude was clearly old dem establishment, he was Obama’s VP and defeated the progressives like Bernie in the primary after all.
edit: Oh, and if you think all dems want progressive values, that’s a very strong sign that you’re consuming conservative media. That’s their line.
