One of the first polls since the selection of Harris shows a similar margin to the polls before her selection. That's not shocking---she was a very logical pick and fits into both parties' longstanding strategies and appeals. — PolitiTweet.org

There is a ton of litigation and news about the voting process right now. We tried to explain what should really alarm you versus what is not ideal but is perhaps less alarming. https://t.co/njWFnR5em6 — PolitiTweet.org

.@jbouie argues that Americans should vote early and in-person to prevent any potential election rigging from Trump. Very much worth reading. https://t.co/pDCZvI7wdu — PolitiTweet.org

Excellent @imillhiser piece 1. explaining the Supreme Court's "shadow docket" 2. showing how the court issues hugely important rulings with little coverage through that docket 3. detailing the very pro-Trump pattern of rulings on that docket. https://t.co/zCFfQwWVmj — PolitiTweet.org

Learned a lot from this @danpfeiffer piece arguing that Dems (but not necessarily the Biden campaign) should really invest in Texas this cycle (more to shape outcomes in the nation's 2nd-biggest state than to win 270.) https://t.co/4gyQ5OBSHx — PolitiTweet.org

None of this is to say that Biden won't pick Harris, that she is the necessarily the best person for the role or that he is personally hung up on that debate night. He does not hold grudges (at least according to his cue cards.) But it sounds like some people around him might. — PolitiTweet.org
