Why she deserved to lose: Gaza genocide

Why she actually lost: voters inappropriately blaming democrats for the high inflation in 2021-2023

Why this sucks:

  • since Gaza protest voters weren't actually a difference maker, there's not as much opportunity for us to agitate about it as we would've liked. Liberals will probably be dismissive of the argument that Harris lost because of her position about Gaza, and they'll be right; it just doesn't really hold up.
  • the liberal smugness about ignorant voters that we're surely going to see in the next few weeks is... actually kind of correct.

Let me know if you think I'm wrong about any of this. I'd kind of like to be wrong, honestly.

    I think it's pretty irrefutable she lost Michigan's large block of Muslim voters over the genocide.

      Yeh. It's not just 12 million voters, it's which voters in which demographics.
