5timechamp Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 The Dems are outspending the GOP big everywhere except in major expected places like PA and GA. The disparity everywhere else is huge… almost insurmountable.. Thankfully Trump has other mechanisms picking up his slack so he doesn't have to spend. He has the national press doing in kind donations, Sinclair broadcasting, gerrymandering in GOP controlled states. Apparently a big chunk of the GOP money is mostly focusing on the “election integrity” fight.. for good reason 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's your mistake there. Cops are POS who would probably put a gun to the doctor's head to stop it. Now if you said, "I can't believe the cashier from 7-11 would roll up to a hospital to arrest some doctors for saving a woman's life," well I'm with you there. I couldn't imagine that.

PaladinSolo Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 8 minutes ago, Xbob42 said: Historically speaking, how much does spending correlate to getting people in office? Both for President and down ballot. Probably pretty high, especially when talking campaign spending. Largely because if you have a lot more than the otherside in campaign donations, which are capped you likely just have a lot more support.

Both for President and down ballot. Correlation is high. How Money Affects Elections | FiveThirtyEight FIVETHIRTYEIGHT.COM To quote the great political philosopher Cyndi Lauper, “Money changes everything.” And nowhere is that proverb more taken to heart than in a federal election, w… But there are caveats, such as: Quote Money is certainly strongly associated with political success. But, “I think where you have to change your thinking is that money causes winning,” said Richard Lau, professor of political science at Rutgers. “I think it’s more that winning attracts money.” That’s not to say money is irrelevant to winning, said Adam Bonica, a professor of political science at Stanford who also manages the Database on Ideology, Money in Politics, and Elections. But decades of research suggest that money probably isn’t the deciding factor in who wins a general election, and especially not for incumbents. Most of the research on this was done in the last century, Bonica told me, and it generally found that spending didn’t affect wins for incumbents and that the impact for challengers was unclear. Even the studies that showed spending having the biggest effect, like one that found a more than 6 percent increase in vote share for incumbents, didn’t demonstrate that money causes wins. In fact, Bonica said, those gains from spending likely translate to less of an advantage today, in a time period where voters are more stridently partisan. There are probably fewer and fewer people who are going to vote a split ticket because they liked your ad. Instead, he and Lau agreed, the strong raw association between raising the most cash and winning probably has more to do with big donors who can tell (based on polls or knowledge of the district or just gut-feeling woo-woo magic) that one candidate is more likely to win — and then they give that person all their money.

SaysWho? Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Hispanic voters give Harris edge on healthcare, climate, Reuters/Ipsos poll shows Quote A diverse and fast-growing slice of the U.S. electorate who are swing voters, Hispanics are an attractive target for both candidates in a contest that was shaken up in July when Democratic President Joe Biden folded his flagging re-election campaign and passed the torch to Harris. The Reuters/Ipsos poll, conducted Aug. 21-28, showed that the top issues for Hispanic registered voters ahead of the Nov. 5 election largely track those of the country at large, with the economy, immigration, healthcare and climate change standing out as the group's top priorities. Quote U.S. inflation has cooled over the last year and in June consumer prices fell for the first time in four years amid cheaper gasoline and moderating rents. Voter sympathies could shift between now and Election Day and it remains to be seen which, if any, blocs of voters will turn out in droves. Experts say predicting the Hispanic vote is particularly hard in 2024 because Hispanic voters skew younger than the rest of the electorate, so a larger share are first time voters. "It could be anybody’s race still," said University of Arizona political scientist Lisa M. Sanchez. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
