If I compare your D-R-I figures of 42%-37%-21% to the figures I posted previously, it looks like Democrats are +2% in this turnout, Republicans are +4%, and Independents are -7%.

I don't know how accurate these figures are, and I've said for months that party affiliation is not really relevant in this unusual election.

FWIW from 2012:

Obama won 52-46 (528,801 - 462,422)

D/R/I was 38/28/34

M/F was 47/53

Racial breakdwon:

White 64%
Hispanic 19%
Black 9%
Asian 5%
Other 4%

I would assume the Hispanic population has gone up. By how much I have no idea.

One thing.

The Independents increased their numbers in raw totals in Clark County more than either Dems or Repubs.

The newly registered voters tend to vote on election day and Independents in Clark County within their group vote in a larger percentage than either D or R.
