Democrats could probably get a more accurate postmortem via Twitter than by consulting their “experts” again.https://t.co/5br6gKEQ5h

All snark aside, why do you think Hillary Clinton lost the election? #DemAutopsy

I’ll retweet the best answers…

@FrankLuntz Took the industrial heartlands for granted. Not enough campaign resources devoted to them.

@FrankLuntz They ignored intel from states like Michigan– and from the DNC. (Gore did the same in 2000)

So, excessive hubris in Brooklyn.

@FrankLuntz ignoring Michigan and Wisconsin. Assuming those were locks. Where was her ground game?

— Jacob of Osage (@jkeith1980) December 16, 2016

@FrankLuntz Her ground-game became too confident; too early. Started playing for states like AZ when she should have been in the rust belt.

@FrankLuntz She didn't campaign in rural areas through the rust belt, in terms of both message and campaign stops. Focused on base.

@FrankLuntz …The campaign relied on “objective” polls, voter modeling, and the views of those in Brooklyn and D.C.

So, tone deaf.

@FrankLuntz Too much about Trump, not enough talk on serious policy. As a Hillary supporter I was bothered.

— julieverive (@julieverive) December 16, 2016

@FrankLuntz Hillary had no positive message. She ran as "not-Trump" and people wanted someone to vote for. Only 9% of her ads were policy.

— Jimmy McGiggin (@JimmyMcGiggin) December 16, 2016

@FrankLuntz because America wanted change. She seemed like more of the same – and we're tired of it!

Very interesting answers. What do you think?
