Land doesn’t vote. It’s a pretty map but it’s meaningless

True, with city density, you can harvest a heck of a lot more votes in a 20 story apartment building in any city than you can driving around large farms in Iowa or Nebraska to do the same. It would probably take a week to achieve the same result (if you ever could) of what you could do in a day in a city. It's why harvesting works so well for Democrats and not for traditional Red states. But it underscores my point. Harris does not need to talk to reporters to win people over with actual policy positions. It is just the fact the cities now rule and the Democrats are better at getting the vote out in these dense locales. Policies don't really matter to most, sadly. We hear a blurb that triggers our one issue and that trumps any others that might not be in our best interests. Thanks for the comment!
