GOP COULD SEE 'TSUNAMI' OF VOTERS ON ELECTION DAY
Breitbart ^ | 10/31/2012 | Tony Lee

Posted on 10/31/2012 12:32:44 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

In many battleground states, Republicans traditionally outperform Democrats at the polls on Election Day, and some analysts believe there will be a GOP "tsunami" at the polls on next Tuesday's Election Day.

Over the last two weeks, GOP political operatives have noted Democrats have been turning out "high-propensity voters" -- or voters who normally vote on Election Day -- for early voting, while Republicans have been turning "low propensity voters" -- or voters who traditionally do not vote on Election Day. This means Democrats have fewer voters to draw from their universe on Election Day while Republicans have more.

One Republican analyst said "Democrats are cannibalizing their high-propensity voters in advance of election day to get stories that they are winning," which is amounting to "stealing from Peter, or Election Day, to pay Paul, or early voting."

As the Examiner noted, "in Ohio, the Democrats have turned out 43 percent of the most loyal supporters to vote, compared to just 27 percent of the GOP. In Iowa, the difference is 43 percent to 29 percent."

Although Democrats have touted their early voting strength, a Gallup poll found Romney with a seven-point lead among voters who have already voted, and even a Pew Research survey found Romney already has a "turnout advantage over Obama, which could loom larger as Election Day approaches."

Ohio should not be allowed to participate in the national election until they can get their election ***holes under control. I just read another article about the machines in Ohio transferring Romney votes to the Kenyan. Once again, the only excuse the Obama zombies have is that “the machines have been acting up all day.” Romney needs to go to court now and get all of Ohio’s “votes” thrown out. They ALL are bogus.

“Democrats have been turning out “high-propensity voters” — or voters who normally vote on Election Day — for early voting, while Republicans have been turning “low propensity voters” “

Are the recently deceased considered “high-propensity”, or “low-propensity” voters. Have the democrats been holding their staggering armies of zombies in abeyance, or do they intend to call on them on election day?

Just saw the weather forecast for NY and east coast, looks like another Noreaster is due in on Tuesday. Not as strong as Sandy but none the less it will inhibit the less motivated to stay home

God has a sense of humor but when you continue to poke him in the eye he will respond....Note the areas being most impacted here are more typically Blue

Just sayin...

Hmmm... a ‘tsunami’ of voters

Kinda makes me want to get a big speaker, slap a huge Romney/Ryan RR logo on it, put it outside Dem headquarters, and play the Jaws theme on a loop.

Maybe do the same thing at the White House.

Past is prelude.

Chick-Fil-A appreciation day was a proxy for the voting booth on November 6th.

All those people from Chick-Fil-A appreciation day are showing up next Tuesday.

I think it will happen. A couple of us have been waving Romney signs outside our neighborhood for over a week on a busy road and we have been getting overwhelming positive responses. We are in Volusia County FL which always goes blue even when FL is red. The interesting thing is that the majority of F U Romney screams are from younger (20’s/30’s) young men??? Well got to head out to wave signs...78 vet in wheelchair, 60 some pastor’s wife and me LOL!! Pray for us

If the machine mischief is that widespread, it will be a blow out one way or the other.

Stealing from Peter to pay Paul is the foundation of the Democratic Party...

Thank you for your efforts, yes, I see a great Romney victory next week!

Just watched a youtube video from Human Events, stating the GOP will win the Senate.

Its going to get alot of people up there asking 'why did this happen'? Is God mad at us? Oh they may not verbalize it but you can bet its playing inside their minds and hearts.

That early voting is going to turn around and bite the Democrats in the backside because if another storm comes up the coast and caused more trouble on election day on top of what Sandy did.. then ? they can't claim that they were being disenfranchised of their votes... and cry for the election be extended.

If they start crying about that the election either needs to be canceled in those states or extended we can turn around and say " THE ELECTION HAS ALREADY BEEN EXTENDED BY EARLY VOTING ! " .


Extend the election days or time=EARLY VOTING, so those voters where not disenfranchised of their votes
.

Get it folks ? spin it..... when they cry " WE NEED TO EXTEND THE ELECTION " .... spin, spin spin with " YOU ALREADY HAD THE ELECTION TIME EXTENDED BY EARLY VOTING ! " ....
