New York Republicans vote early in record numbers — but Dem turnout in ‘total free fall’
New York Post ^ | Nov. 2, 2024 | Rich Calder

More New Yorkers than ever before are heading to the polls early — and the results appear to be good news for Republicans.

Through Thursday, 1,964,393 votes were cast in New York – including 701,402 in NYC, according the state Board of Elections.

This puts the state on pace to exceed early-voting totals during the last presidential election, when 2,507,345 New Yorkers voted early over nine days..

In the Empire State’s seven battleground congressional districts, many more Republicans are voting early than in 2022, when the GOP flipped four New York seats on its way to score a slim edge in the House, according to data provided to The Post by New York Republicans Saturday.

Alex DeGrasse, executive director of Rep. Elise Stefanik’s campaign, said early voting results as of Thursday show state Dems “led by Kathy Hochul are in total free fall” and “no amount of spin can hide that.

“NY Republicans are turning out in record numbers for early in-person voting, vastly outperforming our 2022 margins in every seat, some by 50%,” he said. “Long Island looks great, as does the Hudson Valley and upstate.”

Hopefully this bodes well for a gain of at least one House seat for the GOP.

House seats! Retaining and hopefully adding a few in NY. Also if Trump can add a few extra percentage points from his 2016 and 2020 totals the more it helps in his quest to win the popular vote too!

And/or it could be that Dems who are voting for Trump are having their votes deleted.

Trust but verify.

Good news, but in just a few minutes the naysayers will be here to announce with certainty there is no chance of the GOP winning anything in NY, not even House seats.

These naysayers are really annoying and I hope like hell are to be proven full of Sh*t on Nov 5.

Is this evidence of an increase in Republican voter turnout or are Republicans deciding to take advantage of early voting to thwart Democrats cheating or both? The fact that Democrats are panicking and acting scared, makes me think they know Republicans turnout is way up.

I truly wish that to happen. If Trump takes NY, there is no amount of cheating that can stop a Trump victory.

The cheating is an important issue. But all of us here are aware of it, know they we have to be “to big to rig,” and the constant flogging of the issue on every thread, like it’s a new insight, is tiresome in the extreme

The entire east half of Long Island and also Staten Island and much of upstate are more trump country than this sorry leftist run excuse for a Texas county and city.

Let us stop speculating about when Republicans are voting.

Here is what we do know:

I think even Democrats, at least the ones with a few working brain cells, realize that Harris is so incompetent that even they won’t vote for her.

Maybe the polls are wrong and this will turn into a Trump landslide the likes of which we haven’t seen since Reagan/Carter.

The problem is that they've seen a dementia patient sitting in the White House for almost four years and they've gotten pretty much everything they wanted despite that. It tells them that it doesn't matter who is in there just so long as there's a D after the name because the Biden regime has shown that being in control of the executive branch means you can bypass Congress and the Court on most things.

Originally born and raised on Long Island, NY. If Trump wins NY I’m gonna cry happy tears. He doesn’t deserve the crap from demented Dems after all he’s contributed to NYC.

Love it.

Has any employee come forward to claim she didn’t lie?
Give the person a quality lie detector test, maybe with some Gitmo incentives to tell the truth.
