There are Democratic voters who get complacent. Here in WI in '16 there were voters who were so sure that Hillary would win that they felt they could vote for Jill Stein of the Green Party who received more votes here than Trump's margin of victory. Those votes came from the Left.
How many Democrats were so sure that Harris would win because they felt that the Magas were just stupid dumbasses that they didn't even bother to vote?
Where did those 6 million votes go that Biden got in 2020, but Harris didn't bet in "24?
In my over 50 years of voting I employed 1 simple rule: Vote for the Democratic candidate. Always. Every time. Even if I don't particularly like them their election goes towards the Democrats controlling whatever body the Democratic candidate was trying to get elected to. I was convinced that Harris would win but I still got out and voted for her and all the other Democratic candidates on my ballot. This is simple so all Democrats should Just Do It, no excuses.
