CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten exposed how badly Democrats are doing in vital swing states on Monday, while lamenting the collapse of their brand, as key voters continue flocking to the Republican Party.
Enten initially cited the “Cracker Barrel” rebranding nightmare, which saw the company change their classic logo by removing the “Old Timer” mascot known as Uncle Herschel.
The restaurant had a change of heart Tuesday, following pressure from the public and President Donald Trump. Yet that didn’t stop Enten from using the analogy.
“The Democratic brand right now has about the appeal with the American voter, as the Cracker Barrel rebrand has with the American consumers,” he said. “Bad, bad, bad! What are you doin’? Oh my goodness gracious.”
He added that Republicans “are converting old, former Democrats to their side of the ledger, as well as picking up new voters.”
Enten went on to say that GOP registration is exploding in four key swing states, and how Republicans are at their best registration positioning during this point in an election cycle — relative to Democrats — “since at least 2005.”
The four states where voter registration is soaring are Pennsylvania and North Carolina where the GOP is +8 points since the same point in Trump’s first term; Nevada, where they are +6 points; and Arizona where Republicans are at +3 points, according to Enten’s data.
