It means he's peddling the same deceptive BS that he did before.
Do you think it's just sloppiness that causes him to use the term "early voting" five times and "absentee" not at all?
Do you think Gateway Pundit is so naive as to not know there's a big difference?

YUGE! Trump Leads Early Voting in Florida By 120,000 – A First For Republicans in The State
There’s early in person voting and early absentee voting. Often, absentee ballots are sent/cast early also. But I agree it could be confusing. I don’t think we need to cast aspersions on Gateway Pundit though, for trying to be encouraging when we’re really simply talking about a semantical difference.
