Is a genius. Also heard the TV ads for Doug Jones were very effective.

I agree.... Joe Trippi must have had a hand in helping the get out the vote and efforts to make this happen.

7. This thread from Twitter dives into the GOTV efforts.

The NAACP, Tom Perez & the DNC, and AL residents talking to their neighbors is a huge part of this victory. They deserve a lot of credit.

10. LOL! I credit my kid with a little of it.

Her circle of friends all decided to GOTV. And, as they're all in their 30's, dragged husbands/wives/cohabs etc. in with them. 2 tanks of gas to help transport folks without cars to the polls, and staying up in everybody's face, working their butts off. Dragging the kids along if necessary,

A LOT OF EFFORT FOR AN INCREDIBLE payoff! The extra surge of donations in the last month and probably a little sleight of hand from the DNC really helped with posters, yard signs that didn't last long, and a bunch of determined kids (they are my kids...) and it WORKED!
