Two thoughts on this sobering piece by @LizDye via @atrupar:

1. Margin of victory matters a lot in this race. It’s not enough to eke out a Harris win. We need to run up the count as high as we can in as many places as we can.

2. We need to ready ourselves for post-election protest. If the SCOTUS even takes a case that could undermine the election, we fill the streets, day after day. Get ready.

@inthehands @atrupar @LizDye saw a news report the other day that talked about how white women are angry about overturning roe and have made videos about cancelling out your husbands Trump vote a thing on TikTok, and said early voting so far is 53% women. I hope that’s a good sign, but I don’t know of a way to tell. I don’t know who put it this way first, but the stakes being what they are and having unclear signs like that have me “nauseously optimistic”

@ShadSterling
“Nauseously optimistic” is a good description of where I’m at.
