I love your demographic analysis and path to 55% logic. Yes, we can do this!

AND we need to write about this push in a way that also gives attention to the importance of winning local elections. For those of us in heavily gerrymandered states (e.g. NC, where I live and vote), breaking the gerrymandered super majority is the ONLY way to stop the extreme right agenda. Yes, re-electing Biden and re-taking the House are both crucial. But North Carolina can’t really contribute to our goals for the House and Senate until/unless we control the gerrymandering, which means LOCAL MATTERS to our federal results as well as our quality of life locally.

I’d love to see you incorporate some of the messaging about local elections into your 55% message.

"But what if we dropped like $100m starting this spring and made it a national party, pro-democracy coalition wide priority to drive youth registration and turnout through the roof in 2024?"

I don't have much money, but I would absolutely donate towards this PAC if it existed.
