Harris' candidacy has led to surge in Black voter enthusiasm. It could make a difference in swing states

There's a surge of support for Harris from Black voters and organizers who could make up lost ground for Democrats in critical battleground states.

“Enthusiasm” has always been a “flex” for GOP these recent elections.

Is that similar to a noise meter at events?

The enthusiasm equals 2 football fields plus 6 cubits.

    Oh dont get me wrong. Until I finish the work I have on my plate and can really dig into the data, its pure hopium.

    I was only able to run some very preliminary stats, but in the aggregate, a move in votership of 3-5% might be plenty. It was less of a difference than that which put Obama in the white house.

    But plenty doesn’t matter; where plenty happens is what matters.

      When Obama was running Dems were 38% of registered voters. Republicans were at 34%.

      Florida has changed a lot since then. The first big wave of Boomer retirements hit in 2011. They’ve been piling into Florida for the past decade. Republicans now sit at 40% while Dems are at 32%.
