…or a candidate who can launch a successful GOTV operation and inspire 80 percent of Alabama Democrats to vote. Without pushing a similar share of Republican-leaning voters to do the same.

Those registered *Democrats* would be very different compared to your coastal or normal Democrat plus they are nominally Democrats usually because of the New Deal/Great Society tradition in those counties. Many of them are very conservative and have regularly voted for Republicans but don't care to change their registration. Voter registration is a really bad way to gauge support.

I’m well aware. I meant "80 percent of Alabamans who vote Democrat", regardless of registration. I should have been more clear.

No party registration there, if I remember correctly. Just people vote in party primaries.

I'm hoping Brandon Presley can do that in Mississippi in 2027.
