Tbh, I know some may disagree, but I don't think she really has as much political sway as people might think.

The 30k voter registration is nice, but the location/willingness to vote/etc. are important considerations. Did she get 30k in Wisconsin to register or was it 30k Californians that won't affect the outcome anyways?

It will be big news, but I honestly don't see that being what would make Biden win over Trump. Biden winning over Trump is going to be because Trump's legal issues, people perceiving him as a risky leader, moderates being turned off by Trumpist candidates, and Trump putting his own foot in his mouth. Not to mention, abortion will be a #1 priority, and for every state its on the ballot, that will not be good news for Trump. If any of the swing states have it on the ballot, that could be the real decider between Trump winning that state or not. When you only boil it down to swing states, the last 2 elections have been fairly close, even if Trump lost by millions of votes nationwide. It might suck, but the millions of Californians that vote just don't really matter for the presidential election (still important for them to vote for their state-wide elections of course, don't get me wrong!) It's as close to "stat-padding" as you are going to get in a country that automatically gives every state 2 senators. I think there was a time when Biden was a stronger candidate (i.e., 2016), but at this point, I would argue he's a relatively weak candidate that most 2000 - 2012 Republicans could beat. He's just not facing the Romneys of the world anymore, so it makes him stronger than the insane Trumpists.
