What was it? Well, we were on the road driving. There was an accident right behind us. And so hello from Lafayette, Louisiana. Good to see you. Miss D, 2023. Here we are. I got to tell you some of the things from the road that, you know, the road is always a good place to be, meaning it's always good to be speaking to people who are out and about.

And so people can get to know about our community.
Okay. So look, Here's the Don Lemon honesty, the Lemon Show Lemonhead honesty. When you're out on the road and you hear things and when you talk to people, you hear things that you don't necessarily hear on, especially in corporate media. You don't necessarily hear if you're tuned in just to places who, you know, that support the candidate that you like or the certain position that you like. So as I mentioned yesterday, in all of this, You cannot, the traditional sort of metrics by which we measure elections, like which constituency is going to support which candidate, if you're, you know, are African-Americans going to turn out for elections? Vice President Harris or women going to turn out for Vice President Harris or are rural voters, red voters, men who have donned beards and wear trucker hats and overalls and all those things that they're going to turn out for Donald Trump.
Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope. So this is quite an unusual election and one that I don't think that will be decided via polling and traditional focus groups because in the traditional metrics through which we view elections. Because I speak to a lot of young people who are apathetic, really, are just not tuned in to the election, to the issues, to the candidates. I speak to a lot of people who are of color, who are saying, you know what? I'm not voting for her. I'm going to vote for him. I don't want to vote for her just because she's a woman. I think that there is a problem with enthusiasm among people who are in urban areas that traditionally vote Democrat. I think that Democrats have an enthusiasm problem and they have a problem with they're going to have a problem with turnout.
