This is nice and all, but I don’t know that it means a whole lot. There are few stakes for the people coming out to endorse Harris now. They don’t work in govt roles, hold position in a political organization or an elected office.
The rank and file GOP (who are running for reelection now or in 2-4 years) are still sticking to the party line and the approved narrative. When they start flipping then it will be real news.
You might be able to convince Patriot Act cheerleaders with an image to whitewash to make a public statement, but you’re not going to convince any voter from the far right echo chamber to vote for any candidate from what they’ve been told is the party of pure evil their entire life.
The only people who haven’t decided whether or not to vote for the Mango Mussolini are accelerationist idiots who can’t be reached, people who won’t be voting, and combinations of both.
To the LEFT of the Dem leadership, on the other hand, is by far the largest group of politically disenfranchised but persuadable voters.
They’re trying to decide if Harris is too right wing to be worth overcoming the many obstacles to voting inherent to a system in the control of one party that despises them and another that takes them for granted.

This isn’t to sway them, it’s to sway their constituents
Which is stale 90s thinking.
