David Plouffe argued that Democrats face challenges in battleground states due to conservative voter dominance, emphasizing the need to claim a larger share of the moderate vote to succeed.
He pointed out the statistics from Pennsylvania, where Trump won conservatives by a stunning 91-8, while Harris only won the liberal vote 93-6, showcasing the uphill battle for Democrats.
Plouffe emphasized the importance of maximizing the base while also dominating the moderate vote, stating that current strategies need to pivot to avoid further erosion of support.
He concluded that without significant improvements, particularly among non-college voters of color, Democratic chances in future elections will be jeopardized, as the math simply doesn't allow for such losses.
