She can raise enough campaign dough to surpass Jeff Bezos' net worth, but that doesn't translate into votes.

Also, where is most of this money coming from? I highly doubt that it's just from North Dakota alone.

Agreed.  If she wins this thing, then that means Donnelly and McCaskill are winning too.

My belief is that she and McCaskill will lose, and that Donnelly will just barely hold on. However, the possibility that all three lose has increased with the recent spate of polls that have come out. Hopefully they do not. We need moderate Democrats, and losing them would only deepen political polarization.

What will Heidi do with all that money in case she loses her race ?

You cannot spend 20 Mio. $ in ND in 2 weeks ...

Run for Gov. in 2020 ?

Well, this gives Heidi the biggest chance to do whatever she can to pull it out.

All that money won't buy you an election though ... (especially not in a tiny state like ND).

With that money she could just give everyone in the state $15 to vote for her. There are worse strategies at this point Tongue

Money never buys you an election. But it can give her the best chance at voter turnout with GOTV and ads.

I wonder if it can help with Native Americans needing to get ID and get to the polls because of the state's voter suppression law.

Early vote is up to 51,904 now. 89,024 voted early in 2014, and 255,128 had voted by the end of election day in 2014. Certain counties are now opening up for in-person voting (in addition to the ongoing vote by mail), so that's provided a little bump this week on top of the already high early voting we've seen from the state so far.

Early vote continues to be very high. Early vote is now 57,078 and the amount of ballots mailed has now surpassed the number of early votes cast in 2014. 91,947 ballots have now been mailed throughout the state.

This is like having Mike Pence campaigning for R's in Massachusetts.

Cut them some slack, at least they’re not sending the Clintons to ND.

I don't think Biden is nearly as polarizing as Pence.

Anyway, my opinion on that matter is that bringing Joe Biden, a heavyweight, into ND signals that, unlike some have been saying on Atlas, Heidi hasnt been triaged. Think about it, he could be in IN, or MO, or WV, NV or AZ, why in ND? Perhaps she isnt down and out.

Could be( though per wapo both side's polls have her well down), could also be that this is a favor for several votes she gave the administration

Quite possible, as well as supporting the party generally the last 2 years.

Now that would be a good way for people to forget about Blanche Lincoln.
