urban white and black voters and get them to the polls. Poor people don't really turnout for elections, but that hasn't always been the case. Will be a heavy lift, but still more realistic then thinking we are going suddenly make a bunch of middle class, upper middle class and wealthy republicans suddenly flip. Yes I know there are poor people still dumb enough to against their own interest, but I think poor for the most part excluding poor rural voters lean Democratic. Those are the people's votes I think we can get.
