NEWSER) – There's still a little less than a week left before Election Day proper, but the number of early votes already in exceeds the entire nationwide total of such votes from 2014. NBC News reports that 24,024,621 early or absentee votes were cast as of Wednesday in the states that allow for them, while six days out from Election Day in 2014, that figure was just shy of 13 million. The total early voting count in 2014 came out to 21,218,015. The balance between voter party affiliation has also shifted, though just slightly: In 2016 at this time, 43% of early voters were Democrats, 40% were Republicans; now, GOP voters are making up 43% of the early birds, while Dems claim 41%

One should also not assume that dead soul democrap voters will not vote again on election day. Democrats Lie. Democrats cheat and attack YOUR sovereignty with their double and triple voting.

True to a degree. However this is coming under greater scrutiny and those prosecuted for voter fraud have gotten some press. The risk is greater than it was for the left during a sympathetic administration.

Same thing in Montgomery Co. Rs/Rs will be even after early voting when we allocate “unaffiliated voters with our special sauce.

That is a HUGE win for Rs, who dominate election day.

One should not assume that all Democrats are voting for Democrats.

That also applies to unaffiliated, third party or independent voters, which are a substantial factor in some states.

A non-politician is president, the left is in scorched earth mode and that is making it worse for them, etc.

Many of the Trump-haters in the political class are annoyed that he did not pay his party dues, get in line and wait his turn.
