Republicans are expected to make historical gains this election cycle, and early voting seems to completely back that up. Across the country, GOP turnout is near or over historical levels, while Democrat turnout is well below.
In response to the massive turnout, Daniel Conston, a member of the Florida GOP, stated, "Incredibly, we are also leading early voting so far, the first time that has ever happened [in Florida]. We don't expect to win early voting, but any lead at all is shocking at this point and a testament to the incredible enthusiasm amongst Republicans."
While Republican turnout is over Democrat's in over a dozen states, Democrats are saying that they are keeping up with Republicans because they have higher turnout in... several states. Ohio Democratic Coordinated Campaign's Lauren Groh-Wargo touted Democratic turnout, saying, "We are expanding the electorate in this midterm election, and Republicans are not."

Not ready to count my chickens - much work to do. I do not like these early victory laps.
GOP must hammer away at Jan 1 tax increases affecting everyone - not one voter in 20 knows they are coming and that the RATS are 100 percent responsible. That will cement the win and give us a historic wave.
Not sure I’m buying this. Georgia has non-affiliated elections. How does one know my party when I pick up a ballot? I don’t have to designate in a general election, nor are people officially registered with a party.
If this is done via exit polling, we all know how off that has been in elections past!
Yes. Why don’t the republicans pass that? DEEM IT PASSED!!!!
DEEM REPEAL OF OBAMACARE!!
DEEM elimination of the DO Ed
DEEM elimination of the EPA!
DEEM repeal of every bit of nonsense Obama passed!
They usually dominate the early voting.
If the GOP is close, it means that there is going to be a massive blowout on Nov.2nd.
And don't let the pollsters try to tell you that the Democrats can hang on to the Senate-they won't.
They can’t cheat, if it isn’t close-and it won’t be.
I agree.
