I call this the Beto effect. Hard to believe but many Dem candidates are underfunded because the party is.. well, it's the party that lost 2016. But a few splashy races give the opposite impression—the way holding the presidency 2008-2016 hid the electoral collapse of the party.https://twitter.com/Pinboard/status/1049495854590189569 …

Yes, a very nice list of articles and some video appeals. *slow clap* People have forgotten what a true mobilization looks like. I'm also not saying there are no efforts. There are many orgs out there! There is no proportional, nation-wide *mobilization*.https://twitter.com/Gemma__RN/status/1049660040334991362 …

So this voter-ID org has a 2018 budget of... about $500,000. If that sounds a lot, well, the Koch brothers *alone* spent about $1,000,000,000 (yep one billion) for downballot in 2016. Yes, there are orgs... There is energy. It's just not proportionate.
