I'm convinced that nothing will sway MAGA voters. They've drunk the kool aid and will (hopefully) go down with their dear leader.

I absolutely agree that HCR is a reliable source of factual journalism, and I like her all the more because she happens to agree with me on her interpretation of the facts. Ah, ego!

I'm more optimistic about maybe 5% of the voters. I think they will ultimately support Biden.

The Lincoln Project's goal in 2020 was to swing 2-3% of the vote to Biden from Trump. Biden won in the 6 swing states so maybe they did their job??

And I'm also counting on many of the people that died of Covid-19 as leaning Republican. And the millions of young people that are voting in 2024 for the first time as leaning Democrat.

So much depends on voter turnout as well. The better the turnout, the better Biden's chances I think.

Plus Jan 6th happened after the election so we also don't know how many of the Trump voters were turned off by the insurrection.
