The campaign plans to have a presence this month at more than 200 Pride events in 23 states, including all of the battleground states, and to launch a paid media blitz aimed at mobilizing LGBTQ voters, two campaign officials said in details first shared with NBC News.

Some of Biden’s allies worry about waning support among LGBTQ voters.

The Human Rights Campaign, recently committed to spend $15 million in six battleground states to help Biden win in November, citing concerns about waning support from LGBTQ voters. HRC estimates that this year one-third of the 75 million “equality voters” — who vote based on support for LGBTQ rights — might not be guaranteed Biden voters.

    Of course you already know what the problem is. We live in a first past the post system which means we are forced to choose the lesser of two evils. If you can’t accept that is the problem then you are another problem.

      We live in a democracy. I’m not forced to vote for either one. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Seems the party that’s going to save democracy doesn’t like democracy very much.

        It’s your vote to throw away but if we get another 4 years of Trump you can kindly fuck off and quit complaining.

            We’re blaming first past the post. It’s just math. If the left is divided across multiple candidates, we will lose to the party that is unified in voting for one.

            So if you actually care about LGBTQ rights, don’t throw away your vote.
