Maybe it's because we heard a number of people speak so highly of Whitmer on this board. Of course that was more related to her comments towards Trump than necessarily how well she was doing her job.
And the second:
"As Biden prepares to announce his choice this week, Black women activists and operatives have launched an eleventh-hour campaign to pressure him. In a pair of open letters Monday and last week, they made the case that he needs strong African American turnout in swing states like Florida, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania to win.
In all those states, a drop-off of Black voter turnout in 2016 compared to the 2012 and 2008 elections, when Barack Obama was on the ticket, helped Donald Trump become president. Dislike of Trump, they say, is probably not enough to motivate the large turnout needed to beat him."
Now just because someone stated what is in bold doesn't necessarily make it true. This isn't the first time its been stated though.
Has it been done successfully before though?
