As early voting tallies have shown higher turnout among Republicans in various battleground states, Democrats have switched to panic mode at the thought of Vice President Kamala Harris losing on November 5.
In recent weeks, Harris’s campaign has brought out the so-called big guns, including former President Barack Obama, who has been accused of coming out to lecture voters about who they should support.
Wild accusations about President Donald Trump, including the claim that he has “no guardrails,” have begun pouring from the mouths of Harris, Obama, and others who are likely attempting to drive turnout, according to Breitbart.
One Democrat strategist spoke to The Hill about the hotly contentious race and noted that “things” are not trending in Harris’ direction. The strategist admitted that “No one wants to openly admit that” fact and cautioned against being optimistic.
Another strategist told The Hill, “If this is a vibe election, the current vibes ain’t great.”
Data from four battleground states, including Pennsylvania, showed Republicans ahead of the game, which has reportedly resulted in Democrats to “frantically” try and figure out what is happening, according to “The Morning Meeting” Democrat cohost Dan Turrentine.
On Tuesday, Turrentine commented on Harris’ bleeding support among key demographics. “The Harris campaign appears to be struggling with Latinos, black men, and young voters.”
He continued, “It appears that those problems have not been solved,” and added, “Nevada is supposed to be, you know, one of our best states. And so it appears that some of our base voters are not very energized right now.”
A former Obama administration aide said they would not be surprised if Harris lost. The Hill pointed out that Harris could find a path to victory if she won Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Nevada, but lost a blue wall state.
However, both North Carolina and Nevada are leaning toward Trump. The latest polls show Trump leading by two percentage points in both states.
Veteran Nevada political journalist Jon Ralston told The Hill that the first day of early voting in the state was “a huge day for Republicans,” but stopped short of calling it a trend.
