Absentees this year imo do not bear relation to 2012. Absentee law changed in FL in 2014 making it much easier to obtain a ballot. You should look it up. I think absentees this year may represent what the total electorate will look like. Just a hunch. We are at almost 3 million absentee requests in florida which will be about 33% of final turnout. That has never happened before. We are pulling early and election day voters into voting absentee is what I think.
What’s troubling is I saw a Republican Mayor of some Florida city + The Chamber of Course come out & support Hillary!!!! WTF!!!!????
I think you are definitely right on this point.
On the positive side, if REPs are ahead under this scenario, that bodes well for the final results.
