Democrats are in full panic mode with less than two weeks until Election Day…
According to a New York Post report, Democrats see warning signs that the Blue Wall has been breached; states Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin may break for the GOP next month.
Democrat insiders are furious with the Harris campaign.
“They are not thinking ‘Blue Wall’ at all. They are just not thinking,” one Democrat vented to The Post about the Texas trip.
“Her press operation is that of a first-time congressional candidate running as a sacrificial lamb,” this person added.
“I think her press team actually works for Trump,” the disgruntled Democrat added, noting that in their opinion, the 45th president has “made a better case for himself than her.”
From The New York Post:
While Michigan has been one of the best-polling states for Harris, according to public surveys, NBC News reported Tuesday that anxiety is growing inside the Democratic camp that the veep could lose the state’s 15 electoral votes — in part due to backlash over the Israel-Hamas war among one of the largest Arab American populations in the US.
Just last month, Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.), who is locked in a tight race for the Senate, was recorded telling donors that Harris, 60, was “underwater” in the Wolverine State.
According to the Detroit Free Press, Trump has made 13 visits to Michigan so far this year, while Harris has made just nine since President Biden ended his re-election bid in July.
Most of Harris’ events have taken place in Detroit and the surrounding Democratic stronghold of Wayne County, leaving voters elsewhere in Michigan feeling left out.
“I tell you what, Trump is here like every weekend,” one voter, Stephanie Smith, told The Post last week at a Harris event in Grand Rapids. “I’m getting sick of it, frankly. I wish he’d stop.”
“This is [Harris’] first stop in Grand Rapids, and we’re just two weeks away,” Smith added. “We’re the second-largest city in the state of Michigan.”
The bad news may not end there for the veep.
NBC News quoted a senior Harris campaign source as saying Tuesday that “there has been a thought that maybe Michigan or Wisconsin will fall off” the map for the Democrat, with that person and two others stressing that Michigan was the more pressing concern.
Trump leads all three “Blue Wall” states in the latest RealClearPolitics polling average with a +0.4% in Wisconsin, +0.8% in Pennsylvania, and +1.2% in Michigan.
