At this pace: 52 to 48 McCain. Let’s hope it holds.
how do u get that TB?
What about the early voting? These results are pretty poor for us...5 percent more Dems in Florida, 55 percent dems in NC......the GOP didn’t even cast 1/3 of the votes in many of those states! Any thoughts?
May Dems cast many more early votes than GOP?
“McDonald’s Web site, which he says he will update continuously between now and Election Day, reports that 2.1 million Florida voters have cast early ballots, with registered Democrats casting 45% of them, Republicans casting 40% and independents casting 15%.
Likewise, registered Democrats account for 55% of the 97,000 ballots already cast in New Mexico; 55% of 1.2 million ballots cast in North Carolina and 50.1% of 300,000 cast in Iowa. Registered Republicans cast less than one-third of the ballots in those three states.
In Nevada, registered Democrats accounted for 55% of 211,000 votes already cast in Clark County and 52% of 51,000 cast in Washoe County, the state’s two large population centers.
In Colorado, registered Democrats account for 39% of the early votes, Republicans account for 38% and independents for 23%.
In California, voters in 51 of the state’s 58 counties have cast almost 2 million votes, but those aren’t reported by party registration. Some 1.1 million Texans also have cast early ballots, but again, those ballots aren’t reported by party registration.
Many states don’t register voters by party, which means there also is no way to calculate turnout by party. Many states also don’t offer early voting, leaving big gaps in McDonald’s data. State Web sites supply much of his data, but in California, a helpful voting official is doing the tabulating for him, McDonald says.”
