Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forum"... Pete Buttigieg and Elizabeth Warren voters are most open to consider converting to Yang."
(snipped a bunch of stuff about the remarkable volunteer support for Yang)
Sorority members try to explain this on doorsteps around the state. Around 75% of the house spends most days out canvassing, where they said theyve found that Pete Buttigieg and Elizabeth Warren voters are most open to consider converting to Yang.
Every single Pete supporter that I meet once we tell them about Andrew Yangs policies they realize that they like Pete for his values, but the values are reflected in Yangs policies. So they end up like: Wait, was I Yang Gang this whole time? Delarosa said. Most people are Yang Gang but they dont know it.
...
Hernandez recalled a night dancing on the bar at Marys On 2nd a SOY favorite when she met a man and his Republican husband. Hernandez was able to convince them both to caucus for Yang, and the Republican even changed his Facebook cover photo to show Yang 2020.
So, its not just about what were doing for this campaign, Lee Shane said. Its about creating a transformed society that we all want to see. So weve come together in Davenport, the Yang Gang, showing each other love, being humanity first. Theres a whole ethos to the Yang Gang, and then sharing that with the community that weve built in Davenport, with the locals.

We cannot afford, hell, even his brain dead maga supporters cannot afford, another 4 years of Donald Trump.

(94,461 posts)Every political analyst (and my personal observations) says so. They know who their voters are and they'll be working to keep them from being poached. And even if the "Yang Gang" could pull it off, they won't be boosting their turnout by the 400% needed to be viable in the Caucus process, so any voters they picked out would likely fall back to Pete or Liz.

Voters who prefer Elizabeth Warren have Yang as their 5 choice.
Voters who prefer Pete Buttigieg doesn't even include Yang in their top 5 list.
