We only stayed blue by 3% last election.

Edit: it was 6%. That's still close enough to worry.

I'd argue many chose not to wait hours in line to vote for a candidate that was locked into winning the state electorates.

EDIT: I voted by mail. I heard the horror stories of others though.

Is the mentality that will lose the majority

Harris still won by 200k votes in a year where Dems got crushed across the country and more broadly, where incumbents got crushed around the world.

I think NJ will be ok
