Keith Payne @keithpayne.bsky.social · 12/02/2025In Good Reasonable People, published before the election, I argued that in a country diversifying this fast, Republicans will have to choose between maintaining power or maintaining democracy. This is what their choice looks like. 2102

This week I had a few different conversations with scholars who, in the face of the attacks on science and institutions of learning in the U.S., are wondering what to do. One suggestion I have is: keep doing your work. It matters in and of itself. Why do I say that? A few reasons. 151094399

Now I need the physical book for the citation list 121

Keith Payne @keithpayne.bsky.social · 18/12/2024What all the postmortems of the election overlook is that republicans regularly get 60% of white votes and whites are 70% of the electorate. So they start with 42% off the bat. They only need to get 8.1% from all other groups to win a majority vote share. 060
