A headline that provides context and, well, the point, might have helped.

“Traditionally, Democrats vote absentee far more than Republicans...these numbers actually point to the Democrats underperforming 2012.”

Looks like evidence of voter fraud to me.

Iowa Republicans just like to vote on the actual election day. With Dems, voting early/absentee is kind of a way to brag. Don’t know why either way.

If lots of Dems aren’t voting early, their likelihood of voting at all goes down!

Dems in Iowa always vote higher numbers absentee. It’s always been that way. GOP always catches up on election day. The DEMS huge drop-off in absentee voting from 2012 portends a favorable outcome for the GOP. Situation in FL is reversed with GOP usually outpacing DEMS in absentee voting.

I thought the data was clear but I guess not...

Nope not at all. Looks like democratic indifference.

Yes but it’s more fun to see everyone’s reaction. Looks like many aren’t aware of Iowa absentee voting patterns.

I do not know about Iowa, but in Arizona, early voting is one of the easiest ways to commit voter fraud.

The Democrats collect early ballots as they are sent out, get people to sign them as blanks, then fill them out and turn them in, often turning in hundreds at a time just as the polls are about to close.

This works especially well where illegals have multiple people using the same address, for example, a church near the border. It could work for a nursing home, or an appartment complex as well.

Early voting is simply much easier to commit fraud with, at least in Arizona.

Maybe you have better controls in Arizona.

We passed a law to prohibit turning in more than 10 ballots at a time, a judge ruled it illegal under federal voting standards.

Should be: “Better controls than in Arizona.”

I live in AZ and the ballot arrives by mail, I complete it, and sign the outside of the envelope. Yeah, I think it would be easy unless there are special markings unbeknownst to me on each ballot which would red flag it if it is a fake.

All of the handwringing over national polls that over sample Dems...Trump is looking good in Iowa, Ohio, and Florida and is either taking Colorado and Nevada or close to it. Those 5 have a total of 68 EV’s added to Romney’s 206 and it’s won. Everything else will be for a mandate and embarrassing Hillary.

This sounds better. The Dems are down by 56, 807 Iowa absentee ballots compared to 2012. :)

60 thousand can easily be manufactured by fraud!! Trump needs to garnish over 120,000 votes to kill the shenanigans that will take place!!

I never vote absentee here in Arizona. Personally, I love going to the polls on election day. I’ll be 63 on Saturday so still relatively young, but I’ll probably vote in person until I’m using a walker, lol!

Trump does not have a good ground organization. Maybe enough, but certainly no where near Romney or McCain. Who knows, possibly voting patterns have changed. I doubt it though.

Rush is clueless .
How would he know .
He lives on the heavily policed island of Palm beach behind gates .
In FL, the GOP has come to my cousin door in Orlando twice in three weeks.
They are registered independent .
They came by our home once and my sons place once .
They are busy in central FL and east coast .

Read my other post.

Trump has a huge ground game in Central FL.

Rush is a stealth Never Trumper.

That idiot sold out to his pal Murdoch on amnesty at the Palm Restaurant Years ago..

Maybe, but he has one office in Florida as of 30 days ago.

I could have gotten through the rest of my life just fine without hearing about “the Big Lug” again. Makes me cringe.

He is using Republican party offices rather than setting up his own at great expense.
