“Anybody have any reports about the volume of early voting?”
funny you should ask. Tweet from CNN’s Lisa Lisa Desjardins
“FLORIDA TURNOUT: So far 127,389 people early voted in the Sunshine State, our @psteinhauserCNN reports. Another 250K+ absentees returned.”
What a surprise, the media may not have gotten it right the first 20 times they reported it.
Sigh.
I hope it's right. 200,000 less early votes is less Romney-favored votes.
Conflicting Tweets on Florida Turnout:
“District 23 here in Stuart looked like a ghost town this afternoon. Hopefully, the LACK of turnout here is an exception.”
“Mitt Romney is getting nervous about Florida Primary Voter Turnout, Voter Turnout at an all time low”
“Turnout as of 4 pm: 9.9% at sample polling places for today’s elections, plus 22.7% early vote/mail ballot turnout prior to election day.”
“Sarasota: Primary turnout is very light”
John Avalon, Daily Beast- “I’m hearing relatively low turnout in FLA: wonder if its the avalanche of negative ads - 93% of total in the last week.”
