4. The BIG problem with the EC will be the 2030's for Democrats, not 2028...

after congress and the EC is re-apportioned according to the 2030 Census...

Projections show us losing seats/votes in California and New York and other Democratic states...
while Republicans will gain seats/votes in Texas and Florida...
(unless people stop voting for Republicans there, that is...)

TEXAS seems like a better target than Florida at this point,
and we ought to work to build support there---- and get 'non-voters' to actually VOTE!
(and the Trump maggot GOP is helping us there--- by alienating hispanic voters!)

We absolutely DO NEED to win 'the trifecta' by 2028,
and actually ACCOMPLISH REAL things for the people which they will feel and REMEMBER when they vote!!!!


but the electoral college math does not change until 2032....
