As @LilyMasonPhD, @hakeemjefferson and others have suggested, voters may not understand/use the terms moderate/liberal/conservative in the way that political elites/junkies do. — PolitiTweet.org

Highly recommend this piece if you are thinking about the role of black voters in this election. The assumption one group should turn out/show up while other groups should be persuaded is problematic. All campaigning is persuasion on some level. — PolitiTweet.org

The cohort of black voters who did not vote in 2016 after voting in 2012 is disproportionately younger people. That is partly why I assume Abrams will get strong consideration to be vp for Biden even if he easily wins the black vote during the primary. — PolitiTweet.org

The differences among black voters by age is important. But Biden is doing better with black voters compared to white voters in every age cohort. (So older black voters are more pro-Biden than older white voters, young black voters less anti-Biden than young white ones.) — PolitiTweet.org

Americans will be very tuned into politics this year. I think that is good. I looked at some ideas for people to optimize their thinking/acting politically, borrowing from the writings of @eitanhersh, @ericpliu @ezralevin, @Leahgreenb and others. https://t.co/sjRi3FbQXJ — PolitiTweet.org

.@ryangrim described this general phenomenon in a piece last year--the divides in the Dem presidential primary are apparent in Senate races too. Big difference? It's not clear anti-establishment Senate candidates can raise money like Sanders/Warren. https://t.co/3ipaHpkfwJ — PolitiTweet.org

The view that donors should get special consideration for ambassadorships is challenging to defend, which leads to litmus tests/"But Obama did it too" rhetoric. Debating the exoticness of fundraisers for the wealthy, on the other hand, doesn't necessarily offer much clarity. — PolitiTweet.org

That's an interesting way to think about these numbers. The debate about wine caves kind of obscured the underlying issue. It is obviously different if you raise a lot of money without giving extra access or the potential of cool jobs (ambassador) to donors. — PolitiTweet.org

Bernie Sanders raised 40% more than Pete Buttigieg during the fourth quarter without hosting a single big-donor fundraiser. Wow!
