Oh for Pete’s sake. All indiciations are that Obama isn’t even doing as well in early voting as Kerry did four years ago. There have been other FR threads about this very topic.
How many more people will vote early if you extend the hours from 8 to 12, how many of them are Democrats rather than Republicans, and how many of them will vote one way or the other anyway? Please provide real numbers, and further please explain how the demographics in Florida have changed so radically from 2006 or 2004 that this is going to make a dime’s bit of difference in the final results.
Republicans should WELCOME early voting. The bigger the turnout, the better they do in Presidential elections. The more convenient you make voting, the more Republicans will vote. Again, I speak from Texas, where we have had early voting for years and where Democrats go to die in Presidential and statewide elections.
What you say makes sense to me- I just figure the political insiders know better who will be helped and hurt with this move. But you’re right- it’s on us to get out and vote. I still think Crist is just mad at McCain for not picking him as VP though.
This ruins EVERYTHING! This is the end! IT'S OVER!!!!!!!!!!!
DON'T YOU GET IT!!!????
Even 'plugged in Republican' that Ben talked to confirmed this. How come you can't see the DIRE situation that this puts us in?
Come on, kesg! He was 'plugged in' for God's sake! You KNOW that means our goose is totally cooked.
Stop being a Pollyanna and admit it!!!!
