Harris' candidacy has led to surge in Black voter enthusiasm. It could make a difference in swing states - ABC News
There's a surge of support for Harris from Black voters and organizers who could make up lost ground for Democrats in critical battleground states.
"Enthusiasm" has always been a "flex" for GOP these recent elections.
Is that similar to a noise meter at events?
The enthusiasm equals 2 football fields plus 6 cubits.

It’s a measure of whether folks in black areas in swing states have the energy and will to fight voter rolls purges, poll closures, spurious ID requirements, long lines and all the other voter suppression tactics that the so-called Supreme Court has been allowing since gutting the VRA.
So yes, it matters.
A reminder that in Florida in 2000, Republicans were experimenting with these disenfranchisement tactics (roll purges, closing polling stations, convenient road blockages in cities, the works). They won that state* by a few hundred votes in key districts, and these dirty tactics became a mainstay for the party. And that was before the SCOTUS basically said "racism is over, these voter protection laws are unnecessary now". Every vote counts, especially where they've made it difficult to do so.
* Gore probably would have won Florida, and thus the presidency, if the SCOTUS didn't halt the recount - in large part due to Roger Stone, one of the biggest pushers of dirty tactics. There are a small number of people who have caused a great deal of harm in this country.
*gutting
Indeed, thanks.
What instrument is used to measure this?
Is it tied to the atomic clock?
Or whether the moon is in Virgo, with a salivating Aquarius?eta: lol, dogpile!
Data?
Anyone?if you're asking what mechanism could be used to quantify "voter enthusiasm", a poll of "do you intend to vote in this election" seems like a pretty easy and obvious answer
Except maga has touted "enthusiasm" for 8 years.
What are they measuring?
Where's the data?New voter registrations after a particular event.
Does maga use the same enthusiasm data?
What was the enthusiasm measurement in 2020 vs. today?
What's the metric?
Fuck knows, go find out yourself.
Sorry I hurt you so badly.
Why are you like this? Try and put your thoughts into a coherent point instead of just asking a bunch of inane questions.
Is your point that you think 'enthusiasm' is a made up metric? Ok, cool, great job, you cracked politics.
i'm not sure national elections of a world superpower are followed on precisely the same level as attack on titan readership
No data.
No metric.But it's up!!!
Feelings!!
In Trump's case it is usually to do with his own inflated claims of rally attendance rather than any firm polling data. Donny really knows how to inflame his base, but his party's consistent underperformance in by-year elections suggests that doesn't translate into general election success.
Where's the data?
Otherwise, hyperbole and rhetoric.
Do you know what enthusiasm means? The article you linked has a number of examples of what data might lead someone to believe in the increased enthusiasm. Did you read it?
Yet, zero data. Just condescension.
You simply can't do better.
You're my new idol.
Good lord, you posted the freaking article and now you get shirty when people tell you to read it to answer your own damn question? That's just weird.
I asked, specifically in the post, what the metric is.
What was the enthusiasm index at this point in 2020?
What are the metrics used?
It's fluff. Sorry I caused your outrage.
That's weird.
Bruh. You posted this. Go figure it out.
Is that how it works, sista?
Yes.
