    Jeet Heer Retweeted Sunrise Movement  🌅

    A lot of handwringing about the turnout for Iowa (about the same as 2016) ignores the demographics of caucus goers. A lot more young people, a lot fewer old people (contributing to Biden's problems). A different Democratic Party is shaping up.https://twitter.com/sunrisemvmt/status/1224735948690227200 …

    Good morning 🌞 The official Iowa results still aren't out yet... but @washingtonpost entrance polls show some good news: youth voter share jumped A THIRD from 2016 levels. Looks like we're a force to be reckoned with 🙃 pic.twitter.com/vRmt5iWWs8

        just remember, everybody who says that institutions resist change is a conspiracy theorist who hates democracy.

        shouldn't the decline in old people turnout be as worrisome for Dems as if the demo shift were reversed?

        The olds didn't show up because they were only luke-warm about their preferred candidate (Biden). Dynamic will be different in general, since old Dems hate Trump.

        You can’t swing lower than 2016 turnout as a positive in anyway. Well need to turnout everyone to have a chance at winning in 2020.

        Right but it's not There have always been a lot of people who couldn't pick a candidate this year. Those people stayed home precisely because they will vote for any of them.

        Trump is consolidate white GenX'ers. Which is why LibDem's shitting on Rogan was a terrible mistake.
