GOP early vote is 17,000 ahead of Dems.
This time on 2012, Dems were 39,000 ahead.
I hate Fox. They are saying she is up by one. I don’t believe it.
It should absolutely be illegal to announce who is up from early votes before all voting has been completed.
And early voting in Florida ends 6PM Saturday I believe? Hopefully Republicans can hold this number and perhaps gain some more by Saturday!
More good news!! Rasmussen daily Tracking poll for today has Trump up 3 points from a dead heat the past 2 days.
Yeah, but the news the 3 evening Fox shows reported on last night was devastating to HilLIARy.
And it won’t get any better today!
I wish. South FL and Orlando get to vote on Sunday too.
Keep it in perspective. Based on where the race was two weeks ago, this is a great improvement and trends are all in Trump’s favor. This is not even taking into account the BS polls that are oversampled dem heavy.
No one knows who is “winning” the early vote. They’re not counted yet. All we know is how many are coming in by party affiliation. However, nationally, we do know that there are more crossovers of Dems voting for Trump than the other way.
This is historic. Live it!
I did not know that. Reminds me of the judge who ordered polling places to stay open longer in StL but only in black areas. This was years ago.
Is there a specific reason this is allowed?
y update on the tens of thousands of mail-in ballots that was “suddenly” discovered?
Florida is looking extremely good.
Democrats finished with an overall early voting lead of about 4% in 2012. Currently the overall numbers are about even between Democrats and Republicans this year, with Republicans having a very slight lead. So Republicans are running about 4% ahead of 2012 numbers in a state Obama won by less than 1%.
If you drill down to the numbers for mail-in versus in-person voting, the Republican lead for mail-in votes is about the same as 2012 (about 3%). The big shift is in in-person early voting. Democrats won this category by over 9% in 2012 but are leading by only 2.7% now.
Another way to look at the early votes in Florida is to see where the turnout is higher or lower from 2012. I did some analysis by county and found that in 5 heavily Democrat counties (Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Leon) the total vote as a percentage of to overall early vote is down slightly from 2012. However, in 5 heavily Republican counties (Lee, Marion, Lake, Collier, Escambia) the total vote as a percentage of the overall early vote is significantly up from 2012. This points to higher Republican turnout for early voting than last time.
Any way you look at it, Trump appears to be doing very, very well in Florida so far, and most of the early voting is done at this point.
Is there a specific reason this is allowed?
Sure so the Dem’s can win.
One place where Dems show higher numbers than Republicans is cross overs. More Dems voting for Trump than the other way around! It is why the D weights are high, the pollsters can’t believe their lying eyes.
Oops wrong thread LOL!
Yes sir!
Got a chuckle rereading this FR thread from 3 days ago => Rasmussen: White House Watch: Clinton 45 Trump 42 (How is this possible?)
