Op-Ed by Michael A. Grant, J.D.: A Mega GOTV Goal: 100,000,000 Votes for Harris
VP Kamala Harris

(WASHINGTON, D.C. – October 29, 2024) – The best way to overcome “The Big Lie” is with a more significant truth! For this reason, supporters of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz should set a stretch goal of securing 100,000,000 votes on November 5, 2024.

This is 19,000,000 more votes than Joe Biden received in 2020. Only 66 percent of eligible voters turned out for that contested election. Even with overwhelming evidence that no fraud took place in the tabulation of the vote and after over 60 court challenges, Donald Trump stubbornly held on to the lie that the election was stolen from him. And while it is clear that he knew he lost, the closeness of the count in several battleground states allowed him to convince his followers that he had won the election.

Therefore, this time, Trump should be defeated by such an overwhelming number of votes cast that there will be little room for any plausible dispute about who won the election. Governing with a divided and suspicious electorate undermines the legitimate authority of candidates who won in a free and fair election. So, what are the persuasive arguments in favor of a Harris / Walz candidacy?

Well, let’s start with Harris’s economic plan. Even the business community is backing her plans to strengthen the U.S. economy. In a recent Wall Street Journal poll (conducted October 4th—8th), 68 percent of respondents said they thought inflation would rise under a second Trump term compared to a Harris plan.

In the same Wall Street Journal article, 65 percent of economists saw Trump’s policies adding more to the nation’s deficits than Harris’ policy agenda. Also, 45 to 37 percent of economists expect economic output to expand faster under Harris.

Harris also considers tax breaks for large companies that share profits with their workers. She wants to jump-start her economic opportunity for America’s proposal with the following:

  • $25,000 for down-payment assistance for first-time home purchases;
  • $50,000 for small businesses;
  • $6,000 child tax credit.

Building on the work of the Biden-Harris Administration, she intends to continue growing the number of infrastructure jobs and employment opportunities in the “Green economy.” Job training is also critical to her plans to reach out to those left behind during the ongoing tech revolution.

There is a string of powerful reasons that Harris-Walz must aim for 100,000,000 votes to win:

  • Kamala Harris wants a Justice Department that protects all Americans and is not used for retribution or revenge against the president’s adversaries.
  • Kamala Harris wants women to control their bodies and not have governmental invasion of the womb. One of America’s most cherished ideals is freedom, one of the most galvanizing themes of her candidacy.
  • Harris wants an immigration policy that reflects the best of the American tradition. This policy should secure the border in an orderly and systematic fashion, but it should also be humane and respect the dignity of all human beings.
  • Finally, Harris wants to bring Americans together. She has contacted Republicans and Independents to unify a very polarized country. She knows that the wisdom in sacred scripture is instructive: “A house divided against itself cannot stand.”

Her aspirations are quintessentially American, her policy pronouncements are inclusive, and she is ready to be president for all Americans. For these and other reasons, setting a goal of 100,000,000 votes makes good sense!
