They're from fucking Wikipedia. Is that MAGA now?

Southern turnout in the Republican primaries rose from 2.1 million in 1980, to 3.8 million in 1988. Turnout in Texas rose from 527,000 to 1,015,000, in Florida from 614,000 to 901,000, and in Georgia from 200,000 to 401,000. Over 40% of southern white voters participated in the Republican primaries except for in Tennessee, North Carolina, Louisiana, and Arkansas. 97% of the Republican electorate in the primaries were white.

There you go. In eight years the southern strategy nearly doubled participation in the primaries. It turns voters out. That's how they win.

And instead of trying to turn voters out in their own base, all Democrats do is chase moderate Republicans.

You have completely failed to grasp what the Southern strategy was or how it lets Republicans win. They identified a group of disaffected voters and then won their support - that's how it's supposed to work.

Vote for genocide if you want, but all you're doing is making it impossible to push Democrats to the left.
