The best candidates recognize that you win by meeting people where they are. And Kamala Harris is doing that every single day.
We are excited about the turnout. Let's be clear about that. However, we need to caveat that by recognizing that one of the reasons we are seeing so many people in-person standing in lines this early is because Republicans constrained access to vote by mail.
There is an intentional strategy of sowing chaos in this election, and that is something that we should all be concerned about.
Georgia is a purple state, meaning, this is a competitive state, and the lead is going to swap back and forth depending on how you model the voters. The winner will be the one who takes the time to cultivate voters, to turn those voters out, and to explain how their lives will be made better. And that is what Kamala Harris is doing every time she comes to Georgia.
That mass voter challenge is being layered by the rule they passed a few weeks ago, which is the one that allows election workers to -- not election workers, allows a member of a county election board to de-certify or refuse to certify an election.
What we saw in 2020 and what we need to understand that, voter suppression has three things. Can you register and stay on the rolls? Can you cast a ballot? And does your ballot get counted? This is not one single issue.
