New York Daily News’ Post

“With an election always just around the corner, members of Congress are uncomfortable taking actions that are not popular with voters back home. And they’re eager to support issues and causes that have—or appear to have—popular support among their constituents.” When it comes to #PublicAffairs, it's no longer good enough to just have a powerful lobbying team. You need to find ways to leverage grassroots advocates to accomplish your goals. "An aide to Democrat Mike Doyle of Pennsylvania contacted Google’s lobbying office with a simple plea: 'Can you tell people to stop calling our office?'" Our team at CampaignHQ knows how to use the phone - patch through calls, text messages, telephone townhalls, and issue impact pages - to help you mobilize the grassroots to win your public affairs campaign. https://lnkd.in/duTqHsm8

A massive new 50-state poll from Zogby is the most robust poll yet on the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. Thanks to @FoxNews Jesse Watters for asking about it. The poll asked 26,000 likely voters who they would vote for in three head-to-head scenarios. Here are the groundbreaking results: Biden vs. Trump: Trump wins by a comfortable margin. Trump vs. Kennedy: Kennedy wins in a close race. Kennedy vs. Biden: Kenndy wins in a landslide. What this means is that President Biden cannot beat President Trump in any matchup. And the only matchup in which Trump does not win this election is in a head-to-head against me. So let’s ask the question again: Who’s the real spoiler here??

Joe Biden, former vice president and now president-elect, speaks at a campaign rally in Coconut Creek, Florida. —  AFP-JIJI President Biden has succeeded in securing the Democratic primary in Minnesota this Tuesday, according to Decision Desk HQ’s projection.  In Tuesday’s Democratic primary in Minnesota, President Biden prevailed, according to the projection. Despite constant criticism of his handling of the Middle East war, the victory gives him a boost and additional momentum. Minnesota was an important factor in this primary because of its sizable Muslim community. State activists pushed voters to abstain from supporting Biden in the primary, especially those who were not happy with his pro-Israel position. The “Abandon Biden” organisation, known for promoting protest votes, focused its efforts in Minnesota after contributing to garnering 100,000 “uncommitted” votes in Michigan the previous week. The pressure on Biden has intensified, especially following the Michigan primary, with Arab and Muslim voters advocating for a permanent cease-fire in Gaza. Despite the administration’s involvement in negotiations for a six-week cease-fire to facilitate aid into Gaza and secure the release of hostages by Hamas, the stance on a permanent cease-fire remains a point of contention.  Some activists and progressives express unwavering opposition to Biden, even in comparison to former President Trump. Others believe there is still an opportunity for the president to address the concerns of voters. Biden’s visit to Minnesota, traditionally a reliable blue state, took place in November after Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) initiated a long-shot primary bid against him. The president has maintained dominance in the primary, with challengers like Phillips struggling to gain momentum. In 2020, Biden secured Minnesota with nearly 53 percent of the vote, reaffirming his stronghold in the state. Source link

Ones who have a poor relationship with mortality wish death upon those they revile. This is their only sure win. They know of nothing scarier, nothing more terrible, a perpetual thing with no reprieve. So they fantasize day in day out to unleash it upon their enemies before it comes for them (a fantasy if maintained long enough they may actually make real.) Obviously they can't imagine states of being worse than shuffling off this mortal coil. That turns them into moral imb3c1le5 while they live. In their fearful anger they plot their schemes, huff and they puff, roar and growl, oscillating between half cogency and absolute incoherence, like Anytus, Meletus and Lycon. One can scarcely imagine their rage extrapolated when those they wish dead laugh at them both in this life, and from eternity. We should of course also pity the morbidly enraged. What a terrible state in which to eventually also pass on from this life.

Putin's Global Chaos Since 12/31/1999 v. American History Since 1788 President Washington's Farewell Address (9/17/1796): "Respect for (the Constitution's) authority, compliance with its laws... are duties enjoined by the fundamental maxims of true liberty. The basis of our political systems is the right of the people to make and to alter their constitutions of government. But the constitution which at any time exists till changed by an explicit and authentic act of the whole people is sacredly obligatory upon all. The very idea of the power and the right of the people to establish government presupposes the duty of every individual to obey the established government." ___ State Electoral College representation and Congressional districts are apportioned by population. The "3/5th Compromise" relic of slavery balanced power between free northern and slave southern states by counting slaves as 3/5ths of a person at a specific point in time, 1788, to ratify the U.S. Constitution. In 1789 only white men owning land above a certain value could vote. Since then, the U.S. Constitution expanded voting rights through the 15th, 19th, 24th, and 26th Amendments to all Americans 18 and over. President Washington stated in 1796 what was known in 1788, that the U.S. Constitution would be altered over time and it was the duty of all Americans to uphold. Our Constitutional Republic is a representative democracy, where eligible voters elect representatives to establish the United States government - as opposed to Athenian direct democracy that was participatory government by citizens. The Electoral College is democracy's national security Achilles' heel without purpose. It does not give greater representational weight to small states - like the United States Senate - but gives undue weight to states with close elections for no reason. ___ Our Founder Benjamin Franklin, 81, spoke wisely of the Constitution he signed: "Sir, I agree to this Constitution with all its faults... because I think a general Government necessary for us, and there is no form of Government but what may be a blessing to the people if well administered, ...this can only end in Despotism when the people shall become so corrupted as to need despotic Government, being incapable of any other. For when you assemble a number of men to have the advantage of their joint wisdom, you inevitably assemble... all their prejudices, passions, errors of opinion, local interests, and selfish views. From such an assembly can a perfect production be expected? I think it will astonish our enemies, who are waiting... to hear that our councils are confounded like those of the Builders of Babel; and that our States are on the point of separation, only to meet hereafter for the purpose of cutting one another’s throats."

Although political campaigns seek to raise the most money, a bigger issue is being wise on how that money is spent. The Hillary Clinton campaign, for instance, profoundly underinvested in social media and overspent on traditional television, which belies the movement of people from conventional television to streaming services. Few campaigns spend money on voter registration, although logic (and evidence) suggests it is much more resource-efficient to register people likely to support a particular candidate than to use persuasion to try and change the views of others. Campaigns also tend to underspend early, when narratives are initially established, and also frequently overinvest in traditional political consultants and underinvest in expertise in AI and social psychology. Few campaigns rely much on evidence or social science. Hopefully the Biden campaign will not make all of these mistakes, although the early signs are not promising. Just as the case for companies, the issue is not just the quantity of resources but how effectively they are deployed. Political campaigns, and companies, would do well to emphasize evidence and evidence-based management in their decision making. #evidencebasedpractice #evidence #politics #campaigns #biden #clinton #voterregistration
