    • 2020 October 16, Federico Rampini, “Le casse piene dei Dem. Così Biden trionfa nella raccolta di fondi [The Dems' full cash desks. This is how Biden triumphs in fundraising]”, in la Repubblica:
      La maggiore potenza di fuoco che Biden mette in campo per l'acquisto di pubblicità tv ed altre forme di propaganda elettorale, viene interpretata come un segnale positivo sulla mobilitazione della base democratica, malgrado l'assenza quasi totale di quei contatti "porta a porta" che un tempo erano essenziali per aumentare l'affluenza alle urne.
      The greater firepower that Biden presents for the acquisition of TV ads and other forms of electoral propaganda, is interpreted as a positive signal of the mobilization of the Democratic base, despite the almost-total absence of those "door to door" contacts that were once essential to increase turnout at the ballot box.
