In Zogby poll 15% of Democrats are voting Mccain. The highest of any state polled. Thus, McCain should be ahead...For record McCain will win Florida.

Fla.: Kerry Takes Commanding Lead in Early Voting

NewsMax Wires

Friday, Oct. 29, 2004

-snip-

Among 16 percent of Florida voters who said they had cast early ballots, Kerry received 56 percent of those compared to Bush’s 39 percent. [Editor’s Note: NewsMax’s Insider Report first revealed early voting results — Click Here for Info.]

“This puts the pressure on the Bush campaign to get out more votes on Election Day,” Richards said.

I found this regarding 2004 early voting in FL:

“John Kerry and George Bush are tied at 44 percent of Florida RV’s, according to a new Quinnipiac University Poll conducted 10/22-26 .The Poll also found that, among the 16 percent of Flordians who have alread voted, Kerry leads by 56-39 percent.”

Democrats in northern Florida have been voting republican for years and continue to. Does the election in 2,000 ring a bell? These are people who have lived there their whole lives and never changed there voter ID. You aren’t going to know who won util you know. Just vote and get on with your lives.

No, they are only counting the party of registration for these early votes, not the actual votes.

Right, and this shows a 4% party ID differential, and most polls assume 7% or more.

Trust me from living in a Dem county: Dems vote early, Reps vote at the polls.
