he's pulling a "not Hillary" and actually doing a fuckton of grassroots campaigning in depressed-voting districts, spending outrageous amounts of money on outreach and ads, too. Also good that they're addressing this now, rather than waiting until the last minute.
Starting earlier would have been better, but a lot of the analysis I’ve been listening to seems to indicate that it wasn’t until recently that the Biden campaign was able to get a better idea of the who/where/whys of the disengagement and how best to respond. This is what most likely informed the timing of their strategy.
If he really wants my “black vote” in November, he can start by ending all arms shipments to Israel. Watching little brown-skinned babies get blown to smithereens makes me want to stay home on Election Day or vote third party.
That meant investing early on ground operations and through targeted ads — including in Spanish — attempting to reach voters of color that the campaign couldn’t in 2020; getting the president and vice president in front of local minority-owned news organizations; and fanning out in nontraditional ways, like at bingo halls, local food drives, barbecues and farmers markets.
