Exclusive — PA Candidate Rob Bresnahan: Republicans Seeing Higher Number of Low-Propensity Voters Come Out than Democrats in Pennsylvania
Breitbart ^ | 11/01/2024 | Hannah Knudsen

Posted on 11/01/2024 11:56:13 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Republicans in Pennsylvania are seeing a higher percentage of low-propensity voters turn out and vote than Democrats are, Rob Bresnahan, Republican candidate for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District, said during an interview on Breitbart News Daily.

Bresnahan said the GOP currently has about 17 percent participation from low-propensity voters in the state — people who did not vote in 2020 and/or 2022 — compared to the Democrats, who are seeing 11 percent participation from that same group.

The congressional hopeful said the trends are good, and described the energy on the ground as “shocking.”

“The response that we’ve had at the door — we’ve knocked over 30,000 doors as a campaign. We just had Leader Scalise here on Wednesday the 30th, and the excitement — I mean, we had an outing, a small little rally that turned into 200 people at a manufacturing facility in the district. But even in downtown Scranton, where it is traditionally a darker blue area, people are just fed up,” he said, explaining that they are “fed up” with the economy and with “paying too much for everything.”

Maybe the discouraged voters are finally seeing a chance for their votes to count, for a change.

it’s all noise.
I refuse to believe any poll or news article. I will not let anything raise my expectations and then have the rug yanked out from under me.

New voters are +18 Trump
1-4 voters (one vote out of the last 4 elections) are 12+ Trump
4-4 voters are +4% Kamala

Her votes are all coming in during early voting. The Rs are newer and less frequent voters, so R 4-4s will come in AFTER on election day.

People are freaking out, but just trust the process. I have very good feelings about this election, and most of it is this registration/fraud agency in PA from AZ that got shut down.

“...people are just fed up with the economy and paying too much for everything.”

That’s good. People always put their pocketbooks #1. But I wish people would pay attention to:
* How erasing the border destroys the USA
* How Dems are doing everything in their power to enable illegals voting
* The number of dead innocent women and children at the hands of illegals
* The 100,000 dead Americans every year due to the free flow of fentanyl into the USA
* The loss of jobs to black Americans by the invaders
* Walz’s DEEP ties to the Chinese communists. He fell for a commie honeypot when he was over there as an active Guardsman with a security clearance.
* The weaponization of our legal system and the use of lawfare by Dems and DS to destroy Trump
* The lack of any credible plan from Harris on how she will govern
* Her repeated flip-flops — she is not definable
* Her and Biden’s cut-and-run from Afghanistan emboldening our enemies around the world.

Serpent Head Carville was right about one thing:

It’s the economy, stupid.

Yes. Most people can only focus on ONE thing.

In public speaking, we were always taught to keep to three or less main points.

Low propensity voters as well as “undecideds” are usually uniformed dolts who just before an election look at coverage and say “Look, Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce are for Kamala. I want to be on that winning side, too.”

Our side will have to depend on the photos of the garbage truck and the candidate working on french fries and the drive thru.

Remember, the close elections (including 1960) are decided by a few tens of thousands in key races, not the many millions of determined voters who studied all the issues for a year like us.

Many young voters didn’t actually vote several past elections, probably if something exciting was trending on social media and they forgot the polls were still open.

The early-voting stations in swing counties like Montgomery County and Bucks County (Philly suburbs) were absolutely swamped. Much higher early voting turnout than usual. It overwhelmed the system in some cases. Anecdotally, I saw a lot of older people but I can’t predict whether overall this was good for Harris or good for Trump. I can just say that it was much higher than in 2020 and 2022.

Internal polling is way more accurate than the media/public pollsters. Both sides know exactly who the low propensity voters are and if they request a mail in ballot, then both sides know it too.

Everyone in our house requested mail in ballots this summer. We got next to zero mailers or calls/texts. My one son waited, and he was inundated from both sides……..

Amazing and frustrating at the same time. I knocked on doors for the first time this year……..it was cool to learn some of the the ins and outs of the ground game.

“I will not let anything raise my expectations and then have the rug yanked out from under me.”

It’s not about managing expectations - just don’t let anything keep you from voting for Trump.

PA parameter for Tuesday night.

Philly was 81.9% Biden in 2020. Biggest block of votes in the state. Nearly 700K.

Even early in the evening, if that 81.9% is not happening, the election is likely over.
