If I'm correct this shows what party voters are registered to but now HOW they voted. Where I live people that are registered dimocrat have voted republican for decades.

You’re right. But there is no way for us to know how people voted at this point in the process.

“This is very concerning..What would happen if it became obvious to the people that widespread fraud had occurred all over the nation, literally stealing the government?”

They’ve stolen everything else over the last two years, I’m not sure why I should be surprised. This won’t be over until they’re all tar, feathered and run out on a rail.

I thought Terry Branstad was ahead in the race for IA gov. in every poll. If Dems have this big of a lead in early voting either a lot of them are voting for Branstad, or perhaps there are just more Democrat voters there so naturally they would be turning out in larger numbers?

Lets just hope 25,000 of them don’t vote 3rd party (Barr in 08) like they did in 2008 - giving NC to Obama.

I think the comparison should be made over 2006 rather than 2008 as that was a presidential election year. There are larger turnouts during presidential years as opposed to non presidential years. The same trend may be present in those years but I think it would be meaningful.

Texas data for the top 15 counties indicates that the total will be up over 2006 but will fall significantly short of the 2008 number. That trend is typical for years back in Texas that I have looked at.

Example Texas has just over 13% turnout of early voting/mail in ballots during non presidential years 2006 and 2002. Whereas it had over 42% in 2008.

2008 is the best data we have because early voting really didn’t take hold until 2008. It’s going to take a few election cycles to really pin it down so we can compare apples to apples.

In person early voting has been in place in Texas for several election cycles so that is my experience. I don’t know when other states placed it into effect. But my point is based upon voting patterns there are normally less voters in non presidential elections. The numbers may actually favor the Republicans more if it could be compared to an off year. In the end it will be what it will be regardless of the cycle.

For example in Florida, almost 800,000 votes are already in, and when you look at the party breakdown, you see that 52.8% of the ballots are in from Republicans to 33.7% for Democrats.

I don't have to be a rocket scientist to realize that GOP votes are coming in at a 19% higher clip than the Democrats in Florida.

No rocket scientists required, but a basic knowledge of math and ratios is required to realize that 52.8% vs 33.7% is a 56.7% HIGHER CLIP NOT 19% WHICH IS JUST THE NUMERICAL DIFFERENCE.

Man, I hate it when rocket scientists pose as mathematicians.

this drives me crazy too. I see it all the time ... even saw it in the Stanford U student newspaper.

It took a while -

But I believe El Rushbo, FNC, FR and other sites finally woke up some of those that ran out of Obama’s unemployment stash.....

- O’Reilly appears to be going more aggressive and Conservative - He is going after the “Muslim Threat” right now -

- Another CAIR pimp on O’Reilly’s show right now - Refusing to answer Bill’s questions by asking another question:

“How many other countries besides America have Muslims attacked?”

.

O’Reilly goes right after the CAIR (democrat shill) spinner -

I posted to you on another thread about O’Reilly and who all he has on. I've always liked O’Reilly and I put up with all the haters and just ignored them.

He has gone overboard on trying to be ‘fair and balanced’ too often and there were times he didn't know all the facts. But he's not bad. One week they like someone but let them say a disagreeable word and they are suddenly hated.

Same thing going on with birthers on the Lakin thread, fighting, fighting, name calling. I've learned to walk away and avoid those who annoy me, lol. It works!
