    Today it begins, Kamala has reached the point that she's the Democratic Party nominee:

    There's video from today. this link has video from her first public appearance since Biden endorsed her:


    She spent yesterday on the telephone for most of the day. I read that yesterday that she called the party leaders in all 50 states. That would take me three days.

    She's renamed her YouTube channel, that's the where to go for video: https://www.youtube.com/@kamalaharris

    This is her video on her channel from two hours ago:



    To play it, start it, and then move it up to 5:47. This was one of those live videos which don't start at zero.

    I've named this thread General Election 2024 Harris vs Trump

    Trump needs an introduction post as well, a MAGA suporter ought to write it: @Farb, @SaintForLife , @Others, calling for someone to please introduce your GOP candidate for this 2024 general election thread.

    Compromised = "We don't win" and Trump has been saying "the only way we don't win is if they cheat"

    More than one in four Republicans and nearly one in three Republicans with a favorable view of former President Donald Trump say political violence is acceptable, a new study found.

    The study from Public Religion Research Institute, a nonprofit research organization, found that while only one in six Americans supports political violence, the numbers are much higher among Republicans than Democrats.

    The survey comes during the first presidential election since violent rioters attacked the U.S. Capitol in a failed attempt to overturn the election that Trump lost to President Joe Biden — and two months after Trump was shot in the ear in an assassination attempt.

    “This is not just a partisan issue,” said Robert Jones, the president of the organization. “It’s a Trump and MAGA issue. It’s the kind of Trumpian takeover of the Republican Party.”

    Anna Kelly, spokesperson for the Republican National Committee, said in a statement, " President Trump and Republicans stand for safer communities and keeping violent criminals off the streets."

    According to the survey, 27% of Republicans and 32% of Republicans with a favorable view of Trump agree that “patriots may have to resort to violence in order to save our country.” Only 10% of independents and 8% of Democrats said the same.

    Jones linked that support for political violence to support for authoritarianism. The study found that 67% of Republicans scored high on an authoritarian scale, including 75% of Trump-favoring Republicans, compared to 35% of independents and 28% of Democrats...............

    In Forsyth County, Georgia, Kannan Udayarajan, 42, sends his kids to local public schools that are now majority Indian American. The area, nearly all white 20 years ago, has since begun to teem with South Asian life.

    Indian supermarkets, Hindu temples and cricket fields border country clubs and car dealerships. Some schools serve hot Indian lunches.

    This burgeoning influence has turned the heads of major campaigns and super PACs — not just in Georgia, but in other battleground states where capturing the South Asian vote might clinch the presidency.

    Their populations have ballooned since the last presidential election, and in states like Georgia, Michigan and Pennsylvania, they have the potential to decide the election. New immigrants who have never voted in a presidential election before could be a huge part of the outcome.

    “We are spending our energy predominantly in two places: Michigan and Georgia,” said Shekar Narasimhan, chairman of AAPI Victory Fund, a political action committee dedicated to mobilizing Asian American voters. “We have told the community that it is extremely important to participate in the American system. You have a responsibility. You have rights.”

    From bustling urban centers to the Bible Belt, the impact of the booming South Asian American population is being felt in communities all over the U.S. In Georgia, for example, the Indian American population has doubled since 2010. They now fill entire neighborhoods, schools and caucuses — and they marked a historic first in Vice President Kamala Harris’ nomination for president.

    That energy is mirrored throughout the South Asian American electorate.

    There are close to 400,000 eligible voters of Indian, Pakistani, Nepali, Bangladeshi, Nepalese and Bhutanese descent in the 10 most hotly contested swing states. In some of them, the South Asian electorate is now larger than the margin of victory in the last presidential election.

    “The South Asian community can and will play a critical role in deciding this election,” said Chintan Patel, executive director of the voter engagement organization Indian American Impact.

    For Indian Americans alone, 235,000 eligible voters have become naturalized citizens in the last four years, meaning they can cast their votes for president for the first time in November. And as of the 2020 census, Indian Americans passed Chinese Americans as the largest “Asian-alone” group in the U.S. It means that the 4.4 million people in the U.S. that identify as 100% Indian are rapidly growing in size and influence. ..............

    South Asians could have outsize influence in Ga., Mich. and Pa.

    With South Asian populations, including the newly naturalized, booming in battleground states, campaigns have identified a new demographic to capture.

    Vance and others are using a picture of a young boy and a Haitian immigrant saying the Haitian killed the young boy. It was a bus accident, and the family of the boy has asked people to quit using his tragic death politically. Sick weirdos.

     
    Just changed over to MSNBC and Harris is speaking live to her watch party in PA. She’s doing such a great job at this.
     
    Incumbent said:
    Taylor Swift has formally endorsed Vice President Harris. It shouldn’t matter as much as it will, but her reasoning is sound, particularly in combatting misinformation with the truth.

    She signed her message, “Childless Cat Lady”
