I'm going to keep sharing this info until it sinks in.

Young voters do not get significantly more or less politically activated. Voter suppression gets more or less effective. Ballot drop boxes and mail-in voting, prevents suppression.

People do not become more conservative as they get older. There is not an increasing difference between white GOP and Dem voters as they get older.

Black people don't live long, and many brown voters aren't born yet

The most common age for a Black person in the United States is 27.

The most common age for a white person in the United States is 58.

Black folk vote ~90% Dem. White folk across all age cohorts, are closer to 50/50, with most GOP.

Think about this the next time someone says, "Older voters are more conservative."

Everyone that works in elections in the US knows this but pretends not to know it.

This is why GOP campaigns focus on voter suppression.

This is why I, and so many other Black voters, are so often right about who is going to win a US election, and your favorite statistician, or election pundit, is so often wrong.

Your polls don't matter. Campaign promises don't matter. It's all about turnout. And turnout is all about voter suppression. And voter suppression is all about racism.

Without understanding US racism, your election predictions will always be woefully wrong.

@mekkaokereke This is also why I have worried so much about the places people want to abandon -- which are exactly the places with the worst voter suppression. Glad turnout was able to overcome all that crap. BIPOC voters deserve all our thanks and support!
