    How many voters would she lose if she declared intent to stop assisting Isreal?

    She might possibly gain a few, but would she lose any?

      It’s a valid question and I’m sure the Harris campaign has spent considerable resources trying to get a good estimate of that number.

      It’s pretty insane that the Democratic party officials have to say, “We’d love to stop funding a genocide but our members won’t vote for us if we do that.”

      She’d gain more than she’d lose, even before counting in the electoral college. Conditioning Israeli aid is supported by the majority of people of Democrats, Republicans and independents, and the people who don’t want it don’t care too much either way. Definitely not more than left wingers who want the genocide to stop. In terms of votes it’s a no brainer.

      She would likely gain voters because she would be distinguishing herself from Biden who remains deeply unpopular.
