Keep whipping your narrative, Republican- wired media! --
Weird. Based on @nytimes headline tonight, you’d be hard-pressed to understand that Biden is winning more than 81% of his party’s vote in MI, while Trump is winning just 68% of his. NYT tells us Biden faces “significant challenge” while Trump “coasted to victory.” pic.twitter.com/QcUAbtYjkr

This is borderline innumeracy from the NYT. Yes, the total is much higher but turnout is dramatically higher. pic.twitter.com/ooKt0De8wZ

Political pundits will spend a lot of air time tonight talking about the Dem Primary uncommitted vote instead of focusing on Trump's much softer underbelly within his own party (currently 31% of GOP primary voters voting against him in a state won on the margins)

Some notable "uncommitted"/"no preference" vote shares from Obama's uncontested 2012 primaries:
— Aaron Blake (@AaronBlake) February 28, 2024
Kentucky 42%
North Carolina 21%
Rhode Island 14%
Tennessee 12%
Maryland 11.5%
Michigan 11%
Massachusetts 11%
Uncommitted is now down to 13.5%. Ultimately that will be a wash with the Obama 2012 numbers. A VERY strong night for Biden who is over 80% and rising, once again smacking down the media narratives.

Dear Michiganders ... --
Dear Michiganders who voted 'uncommitted' today, I hope you've registered your protest. If you're still willing to stay home in November, I ask you to remember @realDonaldTrump's FIRST day in office Jan. 2021 and what he's promised to do on DAY ONE next year. #MichiganPrimary

Hope @JoeBiden enjoyed going out for ice cream in NYC while the rest of the city is afraid of crime and migrants.
