Returned ballots-16,400 repubs 51.5% dems 29.6%
Ohio: Cuyahoga/Hamilton updates this am-
Cuyahoga: 175,600 total requests thus far (94,700 dems, 40,800 repubs) 2008: 231,500 total requests (120,000 dems, 35,000 repubs)
Repubs in cuyahoga already up 6,000 requests over 2008 for all of 2008 and fair amount I believe true indies in cuyahoga turning in ballot requests - trend is favorable here (dems have 54,000 overvote so far). Cuyahoga repubs may be key going forward.
Hamilton: 67,500 requests so far (19,600 repubs, 10,500 dems); margin is now over 9000 in our favor
Hamilton 2008: 103,000 total requests (23,700 repubs, 16,800 dems
We are already beating our 2008 overvote of 7000. It is now 9000 and climbing. But this county, indies will be key.
IA: Dems at 61% of absentee/early requests and Repubs at 17%. Dems always outvote us here and in 2008, we were outvoted 50% to 28%. Right now, about a 97,000 vote difference here - we will catch up here and we need to push this ratio to 44% dem and 38% repub which it was in 2010.
Interested in comments/questions/contradictions/doubts/criticism about this information.
And yet the “Pollsters” are using the 2008 model for their calculations.
I spoke too soon regarding IA. Dems now at 57.8% and dropping and Repubs at 20.3% and rising. These are requests (more pertinent than returns at this stage. A difference of about 92,500 this morning (142,864 to 50,319). It was 97,000 yesterday. Keep this up Iowa.
Ping me if you can
Thnx
I hate early voting and the release of statistics. Now the dems know exactly what they have to do to make up the difference with their turnout and voting fraud.

WHat were NC’s numbers in 2008? Absentee ballots always favor republican and NC has a lot of military. This is different than the so called “early voting” so we need an apples to apples comparison.
Got to Over Come a 54k vote deficit in Cuyahoga.
Poll Ping.
