Democrats Counting on Strength of Obama’s Get-Out-the-Vote Network
(New York Times) — Democrats have tried improving the political climate, discrediting their Republican opponents and asking Americans for patience in tackling the nation’s challenges, but the party’s best hope of stemming deep losses on Election Day may now rest on loyalty and logistics, not persuasion. The final seven days of the campaign provide the biggest test yet for the enduring strength of President Obama’s network of supporters, whom party leaders are relying on to build a critical firewall in races for Congress and governor. Republicans hold an array of advantages with the electorate, but Democrats believe their voter turnout operation is one key equalizer.
