The lead from you calculations will go a long way against the damage the Federal judge did.

TX ballots require postage or did in 2012.

wrong on so many levels. The next few lines refer to Early-In-Person voting otherwise known as EIP. EIP Voting advantage for Dems was ABSOLUTELY HUGE for them in 2012. Not this year. Over an 8 day period in 2012, the Dems amassed a 247,000 voter advantage from EIP voting. That averages to a daily advantage of 30,000 plus. They were running up the score on a daily basis in 2012. GOP had a marginal advantage of 74,000 with absentee ballots so in total DEMS went into election day with a 174,000 voter advantage. Yet Romney barely lost.

This year for EIP (which has lengthened to 13 or 14 days for most counties), the DEM daily advantage has dropped like a rock. Their advantage on day 1 was 24,000. Their advantage on day 2 was 6,000. Yesterday it was 4,000.

Well what’s changed? It appears GOP and unaffiliated voters are now also early voting like Dems always have. I noticed this pattern in 2014 when GOP also early voted significantly (not as much as the DEMS but close enough) and that probably helped save Scott in the governor’s race.

Also one small wildcard. A few GOP heavy counties do not start early voting until Saturday. Expect a further bounce in GOP voters starting Sunday. We will see how much that is and how it plays out. These counties are Hardee, Highlands, Pasco and Walton. Romney won all these counties.

Saw the same thing - an FAU poll I think - should well outstrip any early advantage for the ‘rats.....
