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.

This will never happen as long as Republicans are in charge. Because the purpose of ID laws isn't to prevent fraud, it's to prevent voting.
