Topics
Michael Barbaro: 本期节目讨论了2024年美国总统大选的最新动态,包括特朗普在竞选过程中的反复无常行为,哈里斯针对黑人男性选民的策略,以及首轮提前投票结果。 Lisa Lerer: 特朗普在宾夕法尼亚州的市政厅会议上行为古怪,这既符合其一贯风格,又对其竞选造成负面影响。他的行为虽然博得部分支持者的喜爱,但也使其在一些摇摆选民,特别是女性选民面前失分。 Shane Goldmacher: 特朗普在与富裕捐款人的私人会面中表现出愤怒和不当言论,这反映了他竞选资金方面的劣势,也凸显了他对政治对手的敌意。他将反对者称为“内部敌人”,并暗示可能动用军队对付他们,这是一种潜在的权力滥用。 Rebecca Davis O’Brien: 哈里斯正试图通过关注黑人男性选民来弥补民调中的差距,她通过广告和公开露面,直接向黑人男性选民宣传,试图争取他们的选票。同时,她还需要顾及其他选民群体,这是一种平衡策略。此外,第三方候选人可能会对哈里斯在关键摇摆州的选情构成威胁,尤其是在密歇根州,大量选民对哈里斯关于以色列和加沙的立场不满,这可能会导致他们支持第三方候选人。 Michael Barbaro: 佐治亚州首日提前投票人数创历史新高,这可能反映了选民的积极性,但其意义尚不明确。提前投票和邮寄投票通常倾向于民主党,但2020年的情况比较特殊,因此难以进行直接比较。高投票率可能反映了双方竞选活动的组织程度,而不是一方的优势。在竞选后期,关注民调平均值比关注个别民调结果更有效。
