This should hurt Nate Silver, but he’s stubborn that way.
Seriously, this is devastating for the Democrats. Republicans always show up in large numbers on Election Day. The whole reason for early voting was to get lazy Democrats to the polls so if the Republicans are leading even in early voting - goodbye blue wave.
“a change compared to two weeks out from Election Day in 2016 when Democrats were outpacing Republicans.”
And you saw how well that turned out for them!
Yep,
There are tens of millions of common sense patriots who stayed at home in 08 and 12 due to the GOP foisting Marxist losers on us.
Trump has brought these voters back with avengence
wow - that is a massive shift (Rs 38%->44%; Ds 45%->40%)
The pollsters were comparing the election to 2014 midterms, when this is a Presidential midterm turnout.
I vote early in every election. I’m at the polls at 7:00 am on Election Day.
I hope most of the early voters were Republicans.
Those who haven’t voted yet, VOTE!
Our future depends on it. It is critical.
VOTE!!!
Democrats are going to get KO’d in the midterms!
And I think they know full well what’s coming!
2016 was hightest voter turnout by number (if not percent)
Saw some lefty bands offering free tickets if you go vote
Music writer said such tactics were necessary because of the ‘low’ numbers turning out in 2016 (translation: hillary needed more support)
WINNING....MAGA.....MORE WINNING......:)!!!
I voted yesterday for all republican in Colorado, and no democrat.
No tax increases, and no amending constitution crap.
I usually vote, “NO,” for judge retaining, but there was one Adams County judge that I was with on jury duty. The guy’s awesome, so I voted for him to stay.
Sadly, I was the only one there voting. But most people are working at that time of day.
108% of the vote for the Democrats from their inner city strongholds just won’t be enough at this rate.
Voted early on Monday, and there were a fair number of folks there. The tally on the machines was several times higher than usual.
The poll workers told me there were lines on the first day. It’s Tijeras NM people... you can barely get a line if you offered free beer.
2 million of those votes are probably involved with vote fraud.
What about 2014? That was the last midterm.
Warning, Warning, Warning to GOP.
DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT take the “early voting” numbers of any barometer of total polling by end of election day.
The GOP has a not good record on its get out the vote with boots on the ground efforts ON ELECTION day, and the Dims ALWAYS do better there.
GOP, do not get lazy or confident from any rosy reports. Remain scared of losing and get out the vote.
The reason why Trump won in 2016 was because he had a movement. The media could not understand this and still cannot. The Trump movement is highly motivated now to vote for Republicans as a way of reaffirming their vote for Trump.
