230+ is the goal
honestly
i'm fine with *any* house hold, they're not the ones fucking us
I think we might be able to work with 225 if only people like Yoder, Curbelo, and Hurd are thrown to the fire
we need to gain in the senate, preferably 2 seats
The thing is if we hold in the house we've got to do it by a margin where we can't get fucked hard
if we get to 53, then we're basically immune from any BS
that's true
there are a few there who are useless
I wouldn't say that's good enough, not concerning immigration
55+
that's why AZ and NV are so big
How's everyone today
if we hold them, we don't need to make them up elsewhere
i'm actually pretty bullish on AZ
for some reason there has been zero NV polling in a while though
Have been knocking on doors nearly all day for DeSantis and it is very refreshing to be talking to people about politics out in the field for a change instead of the internet
how does the ground situation look?
Looking good. Usually go in areas that would already vote for him, getting that turnout up big time
@FLanon tell us what it's like knocking for deSantis. I'd imagine the discourse is very different in real life down there in FL
Boomers and other senior citizens really like me as it turns out
compared to...this server
yeah, I'm not surprised
you fit the responsible intelligent young man image that they'd want their kids to have
Well it's usually "can't vote for a socialist" and all, you mention venezuela and cuba a couple times, then they say they'll definitely vote in November
I'm 18, so this will be my first year voting
nice
Also mentioning Gillum's FBI situation, the fact that he advocated for a corporate tax hike and called it a corporate tax cut, then abolish ICE
There's a ton to pick apart when it comes to Gillum
i was such a cuck when i was 18. registered on my birthday to vote for kerry in 04 a couple weeks later. regret it
what's interesting is, back then being liberal was the countercultural position. that's flipped now
@thr33 you're 32 I'm guessing?
31
turn 32 in late oct
"what's interesting is, back then being liberal was the countercultural position. that's flipped now"
yep, I've met a lot of people like you here in NYC
who mentioned how they were comfortable with the left back then
but not now
i grew up in a generally conservative area a little upstate. then went to college in CA, and it really made me rethink things
i still voted for obama in 08, but became a skeptic in the liberal worldview before 2012
