Women Dominate Early Voting as Donald Trump Supporters Get Nervous
Newsweek ^ | 10/31/2024 | Khaleda Rahman

Posted on 10/31/2024 10:24:16 AM PDT by Wayne07

Women are dominating early voting in the 2024 election so far, prompting concern among some of former President Donald Trump's allies.

Women are outpacing men in casting ballots nationally and in all seven battleground states, according to NBC News' tracker of early ballot returns. Of the more than 58 million mail-in and early in-person votes that have been cast nationally, 54 percent were cast by women and 44 percent by men.

In the swing states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia and North Carolina, there is at least a 10-point gap between men and women in the early vote. The gender gap was widest in Pennsylvania as of 2 a.m. ET on Thursday, with women accounting for about 56 percent of the early vote, and men for about 43 percent.

Bush won NH in '00, CO and VA in '00 and '04, NM in '04.

We can't predict what will happen this time. All we can do is to guess.

Given your numbers and those above Trump is up by 1% or so.

...In early voting, where Republicans usually get creamed.

Well if women are voting for Junkie Jezebel solely because of abortion, then they are doing themselves a terrible favor. I just can’t believe the majority of women are that misinformed

I voted already and I’m not worried about Trump’s chances.

Evangelicals will decide this election

Maybe the key is independents. There are people who belong to both groups.

That’s why the RFK Jr endorsement was huge.

Republicans are outvoting Democrats in early voting in most swing states (all except PA, I believe).

While more women are “vibe” voters who fall for Kamala, Republican Women are not weak morons, despite what Mark Cuban says about them.

"I expect Arizona, North Carolina and Georgia to go to Trump. Hopefully Nevada. But Trump has to win Pennsylvania or Michigan."

Last thing first since you lead with your rump Eeyore: Trump could win WI / NH or NV / AZ / GA / NC and the rest of his expected map and nail 270. No MI or PA needed.

Now you go back and read the article you posted, which will be certainly be for the first time.

"In the swing states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia and North Carolina, there is at least a 10-point gap between men and women in the early vote. The gender gap was widest in Pennsylvania as of 2 a.m. ET on Thursday, with women accounting for about 56 percent of the early vote, and men for about 43 percent.

Miller, who uses betting markets rather than traditional polls to forecast election outcomes, added that women "vote in higher percentages than men. So, it is not surprising that women are outpacing men in this year's early voting."

More registered Republicans than Democrats have cast their mail-in or in-person ballots in the battleground states of Nevada, Arizona, North Carolina and Georgia as of early Thursday, though Democrats are facing outpacing Republicans in Pennsylvania and Michigan.

"We are seeing an increase in Republicans of all types, gender—men and women—voting," Michael McDonald, a professor at the University of Florida who tracks early voting data as part of his United States Election Project, told Politico. "It's just that women are still ahead and keeping pace."

"Wrong, it means GOP women are voting, not that women are voting GOP. Based on the abortion referendum elections in Ohio and Kansas, Harris will get some of the GOP women vote."

Wow, you are a FReeptard after all.

How is it that in 2022, uber pro-life Kansas GOP Sen. Moran won re-election by nearly the exact. same. margin that the Kansas abortion Amendment lost?

How is it that when the Montana abortion Referendum was defeated on the ballot, the Montana GOP picked up 3 state senate seats and one in the statehouse from pro-lifers? Or that pro-life Montana GOP Rep. Zinke (who is considered a pro-life 'zealot' by the marxists) and Rep. Rosendale, both won easily? Hmmmmmeowwwww....

In fact, the Independent in Rosendale's race beat the Democrat! Where's the pro-abortion anti-GOP 'Roe, Roe, Roe your Democrat' vote in that District? LOFL.

It's curious to me that the same half-a-dozen FReeptards go from thread to thread complaining about the GOP pro-life stance and bitch about how it 'cost us the mid-terms and is going to cost us the Presidency' because GOP women are voting Democrat? These same FReeptards never post one single goddamn article of proof. Not one, not a link, not an exit poll - NOTHING.

Americans, even neomarxists -- but remarkably, not FReeptards -- know that abortion is genocide, and that Roe was an abominably evil blood libel against black babies.

Early in 2024, at one of the first rallies, President Trump plainly stated, "I want to put a desk and a chair on the Capitol steps as I am leaving from my [second] Inauguration to sign 4 or 5 Executive Orders", and the first will be -- as tradition dictates -- the restoration of the Mexico City Policy, an EO blocking U.S. federal funding for non-governmental organizations that provide abortion counseling or referrals.

And the GOP women who will outnumber the men at the TrumpII Inauguration will stand up and cheer.

Nowhere in the article does it demonstrate how this is known. Are the ballots for women pink?

If this is based on exit polls then it is very wary about this info. Also, Klammy has no lock on women this year.

Will those million Democrat voters all show up on Election Day?

No, because they don't exist. 2020 was a mail- in scam.

Some “expert” was saying how in past elections women ALWAYS show up more in the early voting.

“It’s that way with everything. Women are on top of stuff. Girls always hand their homework in on time, boys don’t. If it wasn’t for my wife nagging me to get the taxes done they would be late every time.”

I watched some youtube on the early voting results. The comparison between 2020 and 2024 were very stark. In early voting the dems would have numbers like 55% to GOP at 35% and the rest independents in a lot of swing states.

The numbers now are more like 40-40-20.

I was thinking the same thing the other night. Row v Wade was gone awhile ago now. A lot (most?) states have already figured their abortion issues out by now I would think. Trump isn’t going to change anything from how it is going now.

“If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.”

He should talk about that more. Of course that might get the pro-lifer’s mad. Although he has already said that it is a state’s rights issue, and would not call for a national ban on abortion.

Yes, but see this post of mine from earlier today regarding early voters and past voting history.

The surge in early voting is only good if they are infrequent or first-time voters, otherwise they are just drawing from the Election Day counts.
