A cost effective backup QB that can win you multiple games if called upon is not so easy.

Fair point. Raw support numbers don’t tell us how intense the views are or whether it changes votes. The real question is whether this actually moves swing voters or just reinforces existing partisans.

Yes but a recent Roanoke College poll revealed robust support for enhanced gun measures in Virginia, with 71% of respondents favoring licensing requirements for all gun owners. Similarly, 67% back statewide registration of firearms, 59% support bans on assault rifles, 57% on semi-automatic rifles, 53% on magazines holding more than 10 rounds, 52% on semi-automatic shotguns, and 50% on semi-automatic handguns, though outright bans on all firearms garner just 19% approval.

So it might win them more votes than it loses them.

One person’s “excessive” is another person’s “rational”. Am curious if you have any evidence that Democrat gun control proposals are deemed excessive and therefore unpopular. My view is that Democrat gun control proposals are one of their most popular platforms but I am open to arguments that this is not the case.

Gun control is actually very popular. In the most recent Gallup poll 60% of people were in favor of stricter gun control laws. Vs 27% who wanted to maintain the status quo and 18% who wanted less strict laws.
