Democrats Panic Over Miami-Dade Voter Turnout After GOP Ahead in Early Voting

Democrats in the critical must-win state of Florida are panicking at the lead Republicans have taken in in-person early voting in Miami-Dade County, a usually reliable blue bastion.

Democrats and Progressives in the traditionally solid blue Miami-Dade County are in a panic as early voting results indicate a spike for Republicans at the polls. Early in-person voting in the south Florida Democrat stalwart sees Republicans in the lead.

While Democrats are up overall in Miami-Dade County, when early in-person voting is isolated and analyzed it reveals Republicans are leading. This uptick in early Republican voters in a county that has consistently turned out overwhelmingly blue numbers has many Democrat analysist concerned.

Trump supporters are expected to turn out in heightened numbers on Election Day across the country, including in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties in Florida.

Kevin Cate, a self-anointed former spokesman for Barack Obama, expressed his concerned about it on Twitter and was open about it not being a good sign for Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden.

“I’m concerned about Democratic turnout in Miami-Dade. This is an evergreen concern, but still,” he tweeted.

Ned Ryun, the founder and CEO of American Majority, tweeted, “As of this morning, Republicans are winning the early voting in Miami-Dade County, Florida by roughly 3,000 votes. For perspective, Hillary Clinton won that county by 30 pts in 2016 and still lost the state…”

Rasmussen Reports, one of the polling institutions that got the numbers right in 2016, has President Trump ahead of Joe Biden in Florida 49 percent to 46 percent. Florida is a critical swing state that holds 29 all-important Electoral College votes as its prize.

President Trump has been urging his supporters to vote in-person projecting a wariness about mail-in voting and the vulnerabilities it presents for voter fraud. If Miami-Dade is any indication, the President’s supporters are taking his direction.

OH, PA, FL.

The trifecta (usually) needed.

Reagan lost MN to Mondale by less than 2/10ths of 1 percent ..... 0.18% to be exact.

In the final days of the 1984 campaign, Reagan's advisers were looking at the numbers and figured that Reagan could make a clean 50-state sweep if he made just two campaign visits to MN, with one being only a quick in & out rally at an airport during a flight home.

But Reagan, a consummate gentleman, told them he didn't want to completely humiliate Mondale by winning 50 states to zero, including Mondale's own home state. So he refused to campaign in Minnesota.

It’s because 75% of Dems fear the virus and basically won’t leave their homes to vote in person.

Whereas 75% of GOP don’t fear the virus, and want to vote in person because they fear their mailed in votes will end up in a ditch and they fear that more than the virus.

The GOP is waiting. The red wave comes later. I’m voting tomorrow, the first day of early in person voting available to me. The next few days up to and including Election Day are all GOP days.

I think biggest support for Trumpwill show up in low voter turnout by Dems.

that’s just not the case for dems anymore. If HRC held onto her blue wall (Mi, WI, and PA), she would have won and WITHOUT Florida and Ohio.

If I remember correctly Trump had a rally in Minneapolis in 2016. I would compare the crowd size from the 2016 to the Rally Friday.

Although comparing rally sizes is not scientific it’s probably more accurate then current polling.

The 2020 rally’s that I have seen so far are 2 to 3 times the size as 2016.

Sorry but MN is a pipe dream, Reagan couldn’t even win.

Yeah, but Reagan only lost by 3,000 votes and could've won it easily with ads or a visit...but he chose to be gracious to Mondale.

People like you only serve to demoralize our side. So glad our POTUS doesn't have your loser, defeatist mindset.

If Americans only had your comments to go by, they'd simply stay home because you make it sound hopeless. You must be a million laughs for your spouse!🙄

At one of Trumps Arizona rallies I saw a bunch of people waving “Assyrians for Trump” signs. They were big and professionally printed.

I looked it up - there are between 110,000 and 600,000 Assyrians in the US.

Who knew?

It's OK.

The Democrats have crates of blank ballots, plenty of trucks, brigades of corrupt "poll workers", and an army of corrupt lawyers.

She is no longer employed.
And Trump and DeSantis have undercover federal/state marshals ferreting out Dem ballot fraudsters as we speak..preemptively.
As is Project Veritas.
This election will be the most policed in history. We aim to catch em BEFORE the elections.

Sorry but MN is not a pipe dream and the only Reason Reagan lost it was because he pulled his campaign from the state to not embarrass Mondale any further.

Had the election been just a few days later in 16. Trump would have taken MN as well in 16.

I fully expect Trump to take MN this cycle.

We’ll see whose right in a few more days

MN is ripe for plucking.
Minneapolis riots, Omar, lockdowns, the 6 mayors at the Iron Range backing Trump etc.
Trump will take Minnesota just like NixonNixon did.
