For completeness. All that GOP activity with the voting machine industry since 2000 and before didn't just disappear. Note, even Ivanka was invested in voting machines. WTF?

That story, simply put, is that black, Hispanic and Asian voters -- whether you talk about them in general terms, or you break down by subgroup (i.e. Cuban, Mexican, Korean, etc.) shifted towards the GOP this cycle while whites shifted towards Democrats.

Democrats do seem to have a religion problem:

I do talk about this a little more here: https://t.co/6fXsC2qbKM

Virtually all religious voting blocks, with the exceptions of Catholics and the non-religious, shifted towards the GOP from 2016 through 2020. Democrats do seem to have a religion problem. pic.twitter.com/t3WO7M2lh7

Some college towns plus maybe better outreach to Hispanics. Hawaii liberal, maybe shocked, maybe related to low COVID rates

"Immigrant Neighborhoods Shifted Red as the Country Chose Blue"; not a Greenwald fan but here he's just quoting impt. analysis showing how whitey helped elect Biden and more immigrant "p.o.c." went to Trump:

"Across the US, many areas with large populations of Latinos and residents of Asian descent, including ones with the highest numbers of immigrants, had something in common this election: a surge in turnout and a shift *to the right,* often a sizable one."https://t.co/bQfvQp8wTS

“In general, it suggests that Democrats’ theory of the case — that their electoral problems were all about race rather than class — was incorrect," said Ruy Teixeira, a senior fellow at the liberal Center for American Progress.https://t.co/bQfvQp8wTS
