Early voting trends favor Hillary Clinton in Fla., N.C.
UPI ^ | 10/11/16 | Eric DuVall

Posted on 10/11/2016 11:26:30 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Democratic voters in Florida and North Carolina are requesting mail-in ballots at a significantly higher rate than they were at this point in the 2012 campaign, a promising sign for Hillary Clinton in what could be two of the closest swing states in the country.

Every day here on FR we have threads on how Republican absentees are way up, UPI comes out with a hit piece and the FR concern trolls swoon and throw in the towel

“...significantly higher rate than they were at this point in the 2012 campaign”

Higher rate? They are measuring the rate of requests? So on this day in 2012 they got 10 and this year they got 11?

I thought FL was ours.

Even in the GOP primary, Trump outperformed the polling. Yeah, there will be some Caribbean-types and retired northeastern NYers who will vote for Clinton and mean it, but the bulk of the retirees will vote Trump. Trump by +3 is my prediction.

I’ve been looking at that thread and unless I misunderstand the numbers (completely possible) those numbers aren’t terribly favorable either, though not totally disastrous.

“South Florida Hispanics”.....are they Cubans?

There was another thread here on FR that said republican voter registrations in Florida, Ohio and North Carolina were higher now than in 2012. So what up with that?

Seems like that would help to counter any RAT early voting.

Everybody’s bitching and crying because of a UPI article that says there’s A YUGE increase in absentee ballots for dems.

Doesn’t say a damn thing about republicans asking for early ballots.

It quotes the NY Times?

everybody, stop posting bull sh.t.

the Clintons are doing their voter registration rallys today in fl. FL was ordered by the courts to extend registration from end of oct 11 to end of oct 12.

THIS is by bill, algore, and hitlary are pushing today.

they can’t vote but they can ask for absentee ballots.

We knew there would be fake polling showing Trump losing after the release of “locker room talk” tape. It’s all BS. Don’t get discouraged. Trump is fighting & look for another surge in his numbers no matter what the media “releases”.

Trump is going to win.

Vote Trump 2016

WHY THE ###K are people bugging out over a UPI STORY?!?!

They NEVER mention whether republican requests for early ballots is up or down.

Which means it’s up.

Geez, guys. Get a ####ing grip.

Dont believe ANYTHING you read without looking at the source first.

Without the support of the party apparatus, which I doubt ever existed, we aren’t getting out enough vote to win unless Trump has huge support. Just reality. And yes Ryan and others did it. Down with the GOP. Go Trump!

Crap, Trump’s going to lose. There shouldn’t even be freakin’ mail in ballots other than for military folks. I’m not giving up, but I’m not hearing any good news.

Living in one of the reddest counties in a blue state I am going out first thing tomorrow morning to get my vote for Trump recorded before the ‘illegals’ voting train rolls into NM. Trends Shmends, helping to turn NM red one vote at a time.

If God truly has ordained Trump then nothing will stop it from reality.

And I will never vote again if Trump loses.

Quite frankly, none of us will, there will be no point, this is it, now or never. How can people be so foolish ?

America is falling.

IMO, America has already fallen. We fell when abortion and pornography were legalized by a godless, humanistic supreme court. Our exaltation of fags, bruce jenners, etc, are God's way of underscoring why He will bring us down.

Want a parallel? Read Isaih and Jeremiah. It's no coincidence that the same race of people that destroyed Judea is the same race infesting the Western world today.

Dem voters are requesting ballots at a higher RATE, not a higher NUMBER.

Lies, dammed lies, and statistics.

IMO, I don't care if x% more Dem ballots are requested than last year. What I care about is that there are x% more Republican ballots cast.

You say Trump is going to lose, but you call that not giving up?

That right, not giving up, going to vote the hell out of that machine for Trump. I realize this could and probably is all massive propaganda but perhaps Hillary isn't campaigning because she doesn't need to, instead she and her team are focusing on voter fraud. No matter what happens if she wins and is later shown to have won by a 10% voter fraud she wins, there is no process to undo it, there is no one in government that is willing to even try, Obama has all the right people in place, there is no law, not anymore.
