I'm pumped. Young people are voting. Saw it with my own eyes.
So, I drove by the early voting place here in Baton Rouge... the line was looooooooong in this mostly white, Republican neighborhood. But what I saw encouraged me: from what I saw at least a third of those in line were young people. And many African Americans, too.
I contrast that with what I usually see on election day here: youthful indifference. Where are the young people???? Well, this time they're showing up!
Now, I have no hope that Biden will win this beggar state (I love Louisiana, don't get me wrong, but truth is truth)... but if around the country there's this much enthusiasm and concern for their futures... as I'm now convinced there is.... Biden wins in a landslide.
