Reflecting on yesterday's primaries in #MT, NJ, NM, #SD & #DC:
• Voter unhappiness with Biden is evident nationally - averaging 11% (except in SD)
• Trump has equal % of support as Biden.
• New Maga candidates are losing in US
• New progressive candidates are also losing
• Most incumbent Maga candidates are narrowly defeating normal GOP opponents
• Overall primary voter turnout is down
The Bottom-line: if Dems and Independents stay home the 🤡 will win.
