Now get to work
This time next Sunday, I’ll be in Chicago as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention. Don’t expect to see much from me in this space for a few days.
At a dinner last night, several people asked if I’m excited. I disappointed them. Not really. I’m more about the business than the hoopla. When returns come in on Election Night and our candidates win, others pump their fists, scream and jump. I go quiet so I can savor the moment and a job well done. To each their own.
For now, savor this. Then get to work.
And this.
“Some are calling our rally the largest in Arizona political campaign history,” the Harris campaign tweeted.
“At some point media is going to notice that for once a major political party delivered what people really, really wanted and in doing so, ignited a civic renaissance just in time to save American democracy,” added strategist Rachel Bitecofer.
This has got to be ominous for Arizona Republicans, and Republicans elsewhere. But don’t get cocky. Here’s the current voter registration spread in AZ:
Republican: 35.41%
Other (independent, non-third-party): 33.95%
Democrat: 29.10%
But for now, savor this.
Note to self: pack ear plugs.
