With the campaign over, wanted to commend some non-538 folks who did a great job covering it. @AsteadWesley, @srl, @jeneps, @jackmjenkins, @aedwardslevy, @brianbeutler were among my must-reads/follows. — PolitiTweet.org

Being alarmist is considered bad, not savvy. But there is a reason Trump fired Esper and will likely fire Wray post-election, as opposed to before it. The firing of Comey was treated as alarming and was bad politically for Trump. Raising alarms has the potential to effect events. — PolitiTweet.org

The savvy approach is to not be alarmed. Don't take the savvy approach. We don't know the future. We don't know how seriously the Republican Party will push this effort. The first steps to overturning the election results are taking place. That is the most important story now. — PolitiTweet.org

Not sending out a press release congratulating Biden is not a big deal, even if it's breaking with traditional norms. Actively launching investigations whose goal is to disqualify votes hits at real core democratic values, and we are seeing more of the latter than I expected. — PolitiTweet.org

It gets worse. Even if this is all just to please Trump, it is very worrisome to have the nation’s top law enforcement officials on a fishing expedition to prove the president’s claims of voter fraud. To quote @BrendanNyhan, what would you say if it happened in another country? — PolitiTweet.org

That Loeffler and Perdue, running in a 50/50 state, began their runoff campaign by attacking the voting process suggests appealing to folks outside of their base is a course they would rather not pursue if complicating the voting process for their opposition is an alternative. — PolitiTweet.org

Esper suggested that the tear gas incident was problematic, and that the U.S. military would not again be involved in stopping a protest on U.S. soil. That Trump found those views problematic says a lot about him. https://t.co/bEelqNkocr — PolitiTweet.org

Will be a while before we have a really precise picture of the 2020 results by demo. But basically all data we have suggests black voters were at least +70 for Dems, Latinos at least +20, Asians at least +20, and white voters were as a bloc more supportive of Trump than Biden. — PolitiTweet.org
