"There's fewer voters
out there than ever
who are persuadable
-- They're either for
Donald Trump, for
Joe Biden, or they're
not sure they're
going to go vote at
all.
And so what this is,
by a turnout election,
is trying to turnout as
many of the people
as possible, who are
in your party base as
you can."
