Sorry for the delay. Again for the uninitiated, the general rule in Iowa is for democrats to vote heavily early absentee and republicans to vote heavily on election day. It has always been that way. The goal for democrats is to build up a huge early voting absentee advantage and the goal for republicans to to stay close behind in early absentee voting and overwhelm on election day. In 2008/2012, the democratic tactics worked. In 2010/2014, the republican tactics worked. So here are current updated absentee REQUEST totals at equivalent points in 2016, 2014 and 2012 elections:
10/13/16: DEM-143,665; GOP-115,711; UAF-65,572
10/08/14: DEM-119,369; GOP-94,270; UAF-52,293
10/11/12: DEM-187,655; GOP-119,434; UAF-87,911
We are trending close to 2014 when we won. Compared to 2012, huge Dem drop-off, significant UAF drop-off and slight GOP drop-off.

GOP down only 4000 from 2012 while DEMs are down 44,000.
Iowa is in the bag along with Ohio.
North Carolina, Florida and PA for the win!

In my opinion that chart speaks of voter fraud.

Yes, this is 2014.
Emerson poll out of OH and VA actually has me very upbeat, even though Trump trails in each. The internals are such that in a real-world D/R split, Trump wins both.
NC is -4. I still think NC will come along, especially with depressed black and “Yut” vote.

Just a suggestion. Matching the dates to past elections can be misleading because the “days to “election” is different ever election. For instance, the last presidential election was on November 3rd, 2012.
The best comparison is choosing the date that matches to “days until election”.
That way you have an apples to apples comparison.

2012 election was November 6th.
