See whole thread below. And yep, this is how Dems end up not contesting within-reach races. They don’t fund winning candidates early, they don’t fund field early, and then write viable candidates off a year in advance. And *then* drop huge $$$ on TV ads at last minute. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯https://twitter.com/pinboard/status/942752637111414784 …

Don’t let this fool you. Repubs have been funding electoral infrastructure generously for decades while Ds mostly snoozed. Below is D grassroots on fire, but still no real giant early funding for field (which still wouldn’t catch up in a year), etc.https://twitter.com/gelliottmorris/status/942462897229303811 …
