If the goal is to ensure full access to voting, there’s only one fair way for states to conduct the November election: get rid of the barriers and mail ballots to every registered voter (as CO, OR & WA already do). — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

When it comes to shifting to all vote-by-mail, there are *huge* potential turnout differences between: 1) forcing all voters to actively request an absentee ballot (OH) 2) mailing all voters VBM applications (NE) 3) automatically mailing all voters a ballot (CO, OR, WA) — PolitiTweet.org

I suspect today might be the best day yet for Massie's primary opponent, pro-Trump attorney Todd McMurtry (primary 6/23). #KY04 a solid GOP seat. https://t.co/cpJdyxrkPH — PolitiTweet.org

There is only one thing capable of uniting Trump, Dems & House GOP leaders: hatred of #KY04 Rep. Thomas Massie (R). — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we've moved four freshman Dems out of Toss Up based on the weakness of their GOP opposition: #IL14 Lauren Underwood (D) - Toss Up to Lean D #MI08 Elissa Slotkin (D) - Toss Up to Lean D #NY19 Antonio Delgado (D) - Toss Up to Lean D #UT04 Ben McAdams (D) - Toss Up to Lean D — PolitiTweet.org

Basically, #COVID19 has all but frozen House recruitment & severely curtailed fundraising. That's an advantage for incumbents & bad news for upstates. At end of 2019, median House D in a Trump district had $1.8 million cash on hand while median leading R challenger had $247,000. — PolitiTweet.org

Stand by for 10 House rating changes at @CookPolitical this morning... — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Per @MonmouthPoll, 72% of Americans approve of their governor's handling of #COVID19, 18% disapprove. Less than two weeks after 9/11, George W. Bush's approval rating soared to 90% per @Gallup. That Trump still has a net negative approval rating right now is pretty telling. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Trump's ratings on handling of #COVID19, while improving, are much less impressive in the context of the "rally around the flag" effect observed for current governors & past presidents during crises. https://t.co/LrdE4DpgD4 — PolitiTweet.org

@Tiernan_Rea If you're interpreting this tweet as election analysis, you're missing the point. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Why relevant? It's helping drive the partisan, urban/rural gulf in public opinion on the severity of the crisis. The question is whether public opinion changes when, as most experts expect, the latter % rises over next few weeks. — PolitiTweet.org

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict

Relevant as U.S. death toll hits four digits: by my calc, counties that voted for Trump in 2016 account for 45% of the U.S. population but so far just 19% of all U.S. #COVID19 deaths, per JHU data. — PolitiTweet.org
