Another day, another gain of 10,000 votes.
Florida Absentee Ballot Requests as of 9/28/2016
REP - 978k, DEM - 838k, Other - 54k, Independents - 374k
That is a lead of 140k, which is a gain of 10k from the previous day.
No update on Hillsborough county (battleground/swing county).
My oldest son who is a marine is one of those waiting for his absentee ballot, and said there is not one marine who want Clinton.
Obama’s been the gift that keeps on giving to the republicans.
History will not be kind to that man.
Hey this is my job! j/k. Thanks for posting. Only metric on this goes back to 2014 and we are ahead of 2014 when Scott beat Crist for governor. No 2012 information on this metric available.
When Trump take Florida and Ohio, he’s got about 99.9999999% winning the presidential election. And he’s winning both of these two states.
Voter turnout in 75% in 2008 and 72% in 2012 in Florida. 2.24 million Floridians have already requested absentee ballots which is excellent. 12.5 million registered voters as of today with deadline a little more than a week away (10/11/16). At about 75% turnout, we estimate that 9.4 million Floridians will vote this year. So with 2.24 million absentee ballots requested, we are almost already at 25% of final turnout. VERY INTERESTING.
Yuuuuuuuuge. Thanks for posting.
Just moved to HB county. Voting nov 8
It ALL comes down to Florida. This is the state that will decide the election.
that “ Hillary = 30 years of failure “ from Trump was a knockout blow !
I Told everyone Trump demolished communist Hillary in the debate. This communist Hillary must be stopped.
That communist witch lied so many times in the debate trying to copy Trump’s positions he figured out like reducing regulations on businesses small and large. It’s just another lie from commie Hillary . As Trump said Hillary has had 30 years and has never reduced regulations on businesses nor reduce taxes nor nothing . what she really wants is communism with her in Chavez’s role as dictator. she’s lying lying what an evil communist .
Glad Trump destroyed this evil monster and Her NAFTA approving Husband Clinton
She would dissolve our Southern border within 100 days.
She would give citizenship to 40 mm illegals within 100 days.
She assumes TPP will pass in the lame duck.
She would force parents to permit monitoring children.
She would revoke 2A. And 1A.
The US would be over.
Like him or not, he doesn’t murder people. Or have them murdered. Or promise whoknowswhat to Clinton Foundation donors.
She would take us to war.
These numbers are somewhat meaningless without context. What have these been in prior years, for prior elections, etc.
I enjoy reading these - please keep posting, it’s HUUUUUGE !!!
ALL true
Yep...just ask the Russians.
Here is a post on “context”: http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3474072/posts
Short answer is that REPs lead in Absentee Ballots by 79,000 in 2012.
Leading by 140,000 so far in 2016.
Interesting.....and pretty positive for Trump if I am reading correctly.
That’s a gain of 61,000.
Obama won by 74,000 in 2012.
So, we’re making good progress.
They should wait until election day.
Otherwise the dems will have the EXACT amount ready to be "found" in a closet to put them over the top.
Usually the corrupt 3 Dem counties in the south east usually wait till all counties have reported, including the panhandle and then report it after they have found more bags of votes in the corners of the room.
