Pretty easy explanation: these Dems won plenty of '16 Trump voters in '18. So as tepid as Trump's support is, attacking him would risk alienating some of their own supporters. — PolitiTweet.org

@joey_blau @TwoSetViolin love those guys — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks! Hey @ratemyskyperoom, need an audio rater? 👇 — PolitiTweet.org

I literally took a music break. Because there's not much to see during Election Day, tbh. #mapoli — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Didn't say it was breaking "news"...apparently some ppl just didn't get the "stay tuned" hint. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Only if it's broadcast live on @MSNBC. Proposed rules: if you win, you get this shiny fiddle made of gold. If you lose, @SteveKornacki gets your soul. Hey hosts, any takers? — PolitiTweet.org

p.s. the flowers are a nod to one of my all-time favorite bridges (in Shelburne, MA) and the shirt is from UVA men's basketball's epic 2019 title run. cc: @davidgura — PolitiTweet.org

Breaking: in honor of today's Massachusetts primary, tried out the "Shelburne Reel" (w/ an assist from my friend @troymacg from Nova Scotia). #MA01 #mapoli https://t.co/3GvswM1jEv — PolitiTweet.org

I've got a big breaking item on the MA primary shortly. Stay tuned... — PolitiTweet.org

To me, the test wasn't Biden condemning riots/looting/Trump in a Pittsburgh speech. It's whether he runs ads in swing states that go defense-to-attack on the issue. — PolitiTweet.org

Talk to most folks in small-town Pennsylvania and they know at least one - and possibly several - Mike Mazza, Jr.'s. https://t.co/tuljiOyaRa — PolitiTweet.org

RT @amyewalter: On its face, Trump’s move to make the race a referendum on law & order makes sense. Take the focus off COVID, which is Trum… — PolitiTweet.org

@Nate_Cohn Narrow down to just CNN/MSNBC and it goes up to 5,000 points. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

And if cable commentary actually reflected the electorate, we might also occasionally watch a panel w/ a registered Dem/ex-Dem working class voter who didn't vote for Trump in '16 but is Trump-curious this year. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

If anti-Trump GOP/ex-GOP cable commentators actually reflected the electorate, Biden would be up approximately 50 points. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

One byproduct of the current trend in TX - Biden/Dems rocketing upwards in big, diverse metro suburbs but not much in rural & heavily Hispanic areas - is that most of Dems' vote growth is taking place in competitive districts, upping their chances of taking back the state house. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Will be interesting to see how effective a phone/web voter registration drive is vs. door-to-door. I'm skeptical - particularly in low-income/transient areas - but suppose we'll find out after the 10/6 deadline. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

RT @Nate_Cohn: I think people sense that the issue environment has changed in a way that *could* benefit Trump: crime/unrest is more salien… — PolitiTweet.org

If Biden is really up 14% in #FL13 (which comprises a majority of Pinellas Co.), he might be up ~10% in Pinellas as a whole, which is one of the oldest large counties in the country. That would be a very good result for him. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Pinellas Co., FL - one of the biggest bellwether counties in 2020, in my book. Clinton carried #FL13 by 3% in '16, Biden up 14% in this poll. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

A factor I think election models based on historical data have a hard time quantifying: Trump & allies are willing to employ viral social disinformation tactics to a degree Biden & Democrats aren’t. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

RT @daveweigel: There's a clip here of @AdyBarkan, who has ALS and speaks via voice assistance, asking Biden about "re-directing" public sa… — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

It’s pretty easy to share viral video to convince voters that all of America’s cities are going up in flames. It’s not as easy to share viral video of the reality, which is that like 99.9% of people aren’t seeking out confrontation and are going about their boring lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

We could really use a new national @QuinnipiacPoll in the next few days. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

@franklin19788 Right now I think Biden has more chances of making successful forays in Trump's '16 turf than vice versa, but see whatever you want to see — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

@jonathanchait He got 4% in '16, so hey, lots of room to grow. *just kidding* — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

@loizzo Lol ok sorry, forgot DC. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Actually yes...CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, #ME01, MD, MA, NJ, NM, NY, OR, RI, VT, VA and WA. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Biden is well ahead in NH now, but I'm going to keep an eye on it. Trump lost it by 0.3% in '16 and my lukewarm take is that he would've carried it had Michelle Obama not delivered her powerful 10/13/16 speech in Manchester. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

It could be, who knows. But NC barely moved relative to the nation between '12 and '16, whereas TX moved 9 points left & GA moved 5 points left. GA might actually be the closer call. — PolitiTweet.org
