Pres. Trump is en route to Yuma for 2nd time in 2 months. Why? Just 3% of Arizonans, per our July poll, say they are undecided between Biden & Trump. Now it's a matter of turning your supporters out -- and for Trump, selling his on 2016 promises.https://twitter.com/VaughnHillyard/status/1295771217408876544?s=20 …

What does Yuma represent? For Trump: 1) Border wall -- 300 miles of new wall (majority is replacement). 2) USMCA -- Yuma is America's winter lettuce capital/major ag economy 3) Military -- Marine Corps Air Station Yuma here (+10k miliitary/family members)https://twitter.com/VaughnHillyard/status/1295771217408876544?s=20 …

Yuma County electorate only makes up 2.4% of Arizona electorate. But for a 2020 campaign that is running on "promises made, promises kept," it's keen on using Yuma as its backdrop.https://twitter.com/VaughnHillyard/status/1295779496394620929?s=20 …

Politically, Trump needs to win Arizona. Won it by 3.5% in 2016. His numbers are now underwater in Maricopa County. He needs to juice his numbers in rural counties like Yuma. It'll be a race on margins. Needs to bolster support here beyond 2016 levels.https://twitter.com/VaughnHillyard/status/1295778609597210631?s=20 …

Yet there are also the factors at play in Yuma that make this place equally of concern for Trump. 2/3rds of Yuma County is Latino. In this ag community, there's a deep political/organizing history dating back to Cesar Chavez, who grew up 6 miles north.https://twitter.com/VaughnHillyard/status/1295771217408876544?s=20 …

And Yuma was a COVID hot spot. That's a reality that is hard to sell otherwise. There have been 12,000 positive cases in Yuma County & nearly 300 deaths.https://twitter.com/VaughnHillyard/status/1295771217408876544?s=20 …

There is no cure for stupidity. There seems to be quite a number of obese folks lining up without masks. Sadly, many of them may come to regret that.
