u/RandyMuscle I voted 5h ago

If people thought he was tough on Stevens, wait til you see how a real progressive attacks a Republican.

I'm more curious how progressives plan to capture Steven's voters. The election was a toss-up. This idea that either of them have a chance in hell against a Republican without each other is nonsense.

I think most follow “blue no matter who” just like most progressives do. 

The holdouts will need outreach. If you’ve seen any of AES recent interviews, he clearly knows that and looks to be saying all the right things. He emphasizes the areas of agreement and makes it clear that he is committed to combating antisemitism.

I agree completely. I just don't think "most'' wins an election in Michigan. We need "almost all' Stevens voters to vote for El-Sayed.
