It's always worth reminding people, it's really hard for Democrats to win battleground states.
Let's look at Pennsylvania.
25% of the electorate is liberal, roughly.
34% is conservative.
By the way, in most battleground states, that conservative number is over 40.
So in every battleground state, there's more conservative than liberals.
So in Pennsylvania, if exits are to believe Trump one conservatives, ninety one eight Harris one liberals, ninety three six moderates, Harris one fifty six forty three.
But you kind of got to win 60 percent of them right for Democrats to win battleground states.
It is a false choice.
You want to maximize your base, of course.
And that was a place where we spent enormous time.
a lot of resources, that's critical.
And obviously I think in Milwaukee, just to use that as an example, we hit our turnout targets, fell a little bit short in Philly and Detroit.
So that's not good.
That's part of the equation.
You've got to couple that with dominating in the middle.
Not just winning it a little.
We have to dominate the moderate vote.
And I think as we look ahead to 26 and 28, particularly where you have seen drift amongst non-college voters generally, particularly those of color specifically, we obviously have to get some of that back.
We can't afford any more erosion there.
