Log the fuck off.
What you’re saying is relevant if you’re talking about why Texas perhaps should already be blue if it wasn’t gerrymandered.
But democrats saying they’re gonna turn Texas blue wasn’t based on that. It was based on the already gerrymandered Texas, not on the hypothetical non-gerrymandered Texas. And the article highlights specific campaign failures and the inadequacy of the changing demographics argument that contribute to consistently falling short of turning Texas blue even with accounting for gerrymandering.
And? This explanation is not mutually exclusive of campaign failures. Everywhere in the US is gerrymandered. Campaigns are not unaware of this when they campaign.
Maybe Democrats shouldn’t have sent Bill Clinton to talk about how Hamas forced Israel to kill civilians and that’s why you need to not care about Dems facilitating genocide, or maybe Richie Torres could have not spent the last weeks of the campaign feuding with Hasan Piker on Twitter over Israel as he was also in Michigan to speak to Arab and Muslim voters.
I guess we already saw if they made the right choice.
Not sure what happened there.
