He did expand his voting base.

If the Democrats can win the Senate majority, he will be able to pass his agenda.

If not he's going to use executive order and replace Trump appointees in the bureaucracy.

Biden is going to get help from the union movement! It might help the Democrats to hold the house.

Richard Trumka, the president of the AFL-CIO, the massive federation of unions that represent more than 14 million workers, said Biden's resurrection of the "blue wall" in the industrial Midwest was "union made."

"We delivered," Trumka said. "He said he's going to be the most pro-worker president we've ever seen, and I absolutely believe him."

Union leaders like Trumka, many of whom have known Biden for decades, view him as one of their own.

"Joe's a blue-collar guy. He comes from a blue-collar background, and he never forgot where he comes from," Trumka said.

If Biden wins the blue collar majority will keep the Democrats in control for a decade.

Taegan Goddard: Biden’s Popular Vote Margin May Top 7 Million

If it does... then my 5.1% projection might end up being awful close...

again!

Wonderful! How did you fail to convince the GOP to back a candidate in 2016 who could be reelected?
