In my laymans' opinion, based on years of observation, is that Democrats have a base of 47-49%, Republicans base is 44-46%. Republicans are better at keeping their base motivated, angry, and likely to vote. They are better at messaging and dedicated to restricting voter access to Democratic leaning voters. That is how with a 70 year record of utter economic non-accomplishment, FUBAR, failue and "F" up, they remain a player on the national scene.
