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

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.

This is not a poll, but fall-out from the weekend.

Remember... people despise Hillary (even her own party) and there is NO enthusiasm for her. TURN OUT ELECTS THE NEXT PRESIDENT. They have to try and demoralize us.

The networks are all in to take down TRUMP, with career ending threats for pundits who don’t cooperate, according to Bill O’Reilly.

Daybreak was reportedly the keenest poll in the 2012 election. They showed a fine recovery for TRUMP yesterday and were expecting polling today to confirm that.

Curiously, my friends, there is no polling today. What does that tell you?

Give this crisis more time to reset. This was a huge thing, and there is more coming.

Large number of Puerto Rican Democrats have come into Florida. But the figures I saw last week indicated more absentee ballots for GOP than normal.

Yup.

I might be wearing rose colored glasses, here, but I think that Trump wins NC, going away. Pollsters are assuming that blacks are going to vote in the same numbers for Hillary! as they did for Obama.

Ain't gonna happen. Even if the percentage voting for Hillary! is the same - which I doubt - turnout will be lower.

That, and I don't see any enthusiasm for Hillary! or Dems in general. BO is in Greensboro today, and the general consensus is "$#@%@$#$@#. He's going to screw up traffic." Two-to-Eight years ago, it would have been like the 2nd coming.

“The New York Times reports increases in the number of Democratic voters seeking mail-in ballots. The phenomenon is particularly noticeable in heavily Hispanic portions of South Florida, where mail ballot requests are up 50 percent among registered Democrats from four years ago.

Just damn.”

It’s just propaganda. Read it again. The “phenomenon” is “particularly noticeable” in that some unidentified portions of unsaid population has increased 50%. It could be a few towns of 20 people for all we know. If they had real positive numbers, they would be in bold headlines.

Still Report, 10/10/2016

In today’s USC Daybreak poll, Trump improved in almost all categories and has won back all the support he lost over the weekend. Nationally, Trump reversed three days of declines and now leads Clinton by 45.8 to 42.7% - a 3.1% margin. Clinton saw her biggest decline in 10 days, sinking 6/10s of a percent yesterday.

2,893 people were sampled in yesterday’s poll. Trump still leads in all three age demographics, recovering most of what he had lost among middle-aged voters, and returned to a solid 4 percentage point lead 46.7 – 42.7%. In the +65s group, Trump now leads..

there is a thought, (which goes both ways) that a lot of dim voters in the south are longtime residents who were dims in the 60s/70s then starting voting Republican but never changed their affiliation...i have no way of proving how this may relate to mail in voting and just throwing it out there...

John Hammer of the Rhino Times keeps saying NC is a red state, and he knows a lot about it than I do.

She isn't campaigning because she can't get any crowds to hear her!

But you are giving up and telling others to give up since you believe that the election is already stolen!

The harsh reality that some of us refuse to accept (these are folks who insist it will be a landslide for Trump - that's delusional), is this.... it's true that Hillary can't generate the same enthusiasm as Obama... not even close.. on the flip side, however, Romney wasn't getting this massive media bombardment and Romney never had disapproval in the 60s...

Don't underestimate the power of the damn disgusting media and stupid of voters who voted twice for a Kenyan Marxist... who have even more gimmes than 4 years ago

The only way to counter this is a massive media ad bombardment (TV and radio)

We already know the MSM is already working overtime to try to suppress the Trump vote. Wikileaks is just further confirmation. The problem is that it will have the opposite effect... it will be to drive even more Trump voters to the polls and suppress Hillary votes because they will they they have it in the bag. No enthusiasm this cycle from Hillary supporters!

Do you remember what Pauls’ mentor, Gamaliel, said to the Pharisees who were threatening the apostles when they preached in Jesus’ name? He said, if it was of God, nothing could stop it. So relax everyone. If this lion is from God, who is going to stop him?

Yup. I've read Hammer for some time. He's well-connected in NC politics.

And Honest. If he says NC is red, it's red. If he said...nothing...then lookout.

Here in dws territory (have never been represented), I have yet to see a H sign, excluding hospitals.

In 04, kerry edwards signs were EVERYWHERE.
