I wanted to share this article I found about how Charli XCX endorsed Kamala. Not on MSM ... but TicTok. How ‘brat summer’ may be propelling Kamala Harris to the American presidency Ok, I'll admit it, as a 60+ year old white man, I have no stinking clue who Charli is, or what the hell a Brat is. Being totally honest, I don't care either. BUT .... This is just another example of how Harris's campaign is working to reach the younger folks. It is a HUGE demographic that heavily favors democrats but historically has very poor turnouts. Her campaign is not just using social media to reach them, but the social media they consume. And she is using influencers like Charli to tap into their millions of followers. If Kamala can reach out and get the 18-30 something crowd excited about voting it could really change the map. NC could go blue. Florida could go blue. Texas? Doubt it, but who knows. I know that is a big "if", as the young voter turnout can be unreliable at best. But I am really liking what I'm seeing from her campaign. She is getting the likes of Megan Thee Stallion (who I do know, so hot!) to come play at her rallies. Reaching out to influencers to get their endorsements. Reaching young voters where they are and where they get their "news." Just love everything I've been seeing from the Harris camp lately.
Is having a brat summer when you eat a lot of bratwurst? Because I am having a brat summer too if thats the case.
The under 30 crowd generally has low voter turnout below 50%. If Harris can get this number closer to 50%, she wins Arizona, and could turn NC blue.
Youth vote, disaffected Repubs and Independents, and a 30-point gender gap (Trump up 12% among men, Harris up 18% among women.) Huge ground game already in place in swing states plus nearly all downballot races. And money, lots of money. But Okee and others will have you believe that DonOld will win easily by mad-tweeting 70 times a day, being crass, and relying on the bro vote to win.
She has also energized the Black vote which is another group that is normally heavily Dem but also often don't turn out. If she gets big turn outs there and with the young ... watch out. Could be an Obama like map. add Georgia and Az to that and Oh my!
Harris at - 105, Trump at +115. Which I believe means Harris is currently the favorite to win. https://www.oddschecker.com/us/politics/us-politics
Yes, but she has the endorsement of a British lady who can’t even vote in US elections and is most famous for being on an Iggy Azalea single a decade ago. That’s the kind of thing that really moves the needle!
If random Brits can endorse in your election, I have to think carefully about who I will be backing. Off to finish a mix tape and then I'll post to my InstaTok.
