October’s voter registration changes measured against last November continue to show Republican strength, almost across the board. Certainly in the “battleground” states, the Democrats are looking at a very bleak picture. A reminder that these are net changes—some states have seen voter registration increases, some decreases as rolls are purged—but the key is the net gain or loss of one party against the other. Also, keep in mind Virginia, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Texas and Georgia, to name a few, do not register by party so it is impossible to track the changes in those states. However, with that in mind . . . .
*AZ Rs net +11,160 Both parties gained, and the Republican edge was down slightly from last look, but still holding very strong. So much for Arizona “going purple.” If this rate of changes holds, Arizona Republicans could have a net gain of an additional 25,000 voters by election time in 2018....

I was optimistic about NJ last month. Rs gained a lot. But I am told Ds held a major registration drive there for gov race.
Thanks bitt.
You are absolutely bang on the money.
Without sorting out the schools - the next generations will be lost and incredibly hard to win back. It is hard enough now.
Trump has also demonstrated that “red” no longer means much; the Republican president is being thwarted by his own party.
If red is the new blue, this news isn’t anything special.
Larry’s data and research is always spot on; check out any of his posts.
I don’t doubt the research; my point was that if Republicans held 100% of the House and Senate seats as well as the White House, I doubt we’d see abortion overturned, tax cuts, border security, etc. - The last 10 months have shown that having an “R” in front of your name means nothing. When Juan McCain says he worked better with Obama than with Trump, that encapsulates our dilemma in a nutshell. We elected an “America First” Republican president, and he is being undercut by Republocrats with “R” in front of their names.
Warms my heart...
