Not a fan of this kind of analysis but it is what it is.

Since SC doesn't register by party, this is what we have.

In-person voting has been going on since October 5th so have a fair amount of in-person data with the Vote-by-mail data.

Disclaimer: No one know who anyone's voted for.

68% turnout of registered voters in 2016.

3,370,306 registered voters as of today. 70% turnout would yield about 2.4 million votes in SC this year.

It appears we already have 1/3 of the vote with ballots cast or issued.

I early voted in Ridgeland (Jasper County). I waited in line for a hour. They took voters two at a time. Elaborate Covid procedures. If applied on election day, the wait is going to be very long. Vote early.

The DNC radical Left, and breathless MSM are desperate to brainwash Trump supporters into not voting.

“Trump can’t win - he’s too far behind in the polls.”

Their suppression polls are working overtime compared with 2016, trying even harder to suppress Trump voter turnout.

TRUTH:

Trump is less-behind in these horribly-skewed polls than he was in 2016.

Here’s the graph showing Trump is less-behind in battleground states than he was in 2016:

Smaller percentage of blacks, which is a good thing.

I haven’t heard much about the Richland county experience.

Oneof the self professed big time liberals here at the office said he voted joey.

Actually, this graph shows Trump further behind than he was in ‘16 - for what that’s worth.

Do you have to mark if you are black or white on your ballot? (kidding, ofcourse). But how do people know these numbers?

Some of the better pollsters (Peoples Pundit; Democracy Initiative) have called out that in their polls they are seeing reduced black vote (though increased Trump vote among black Americans...mid to high teens) and also surprisingly light youth vote. 16% in 2016; 14% in 2020.

Here is Democracy Initiatives recent national poll that has Trump in the lead +1. Unlike most pollsters they got 2016 right.

I live in SC. How are you able to determine who voted by race?

You may want to take another look. I see Biden +4.9 vs. Clinton +5.2.

No, the graph shows Trump doing better against Biden than Hillary in 2016. .3 better.

I believe it’s part of some civil rights requirement. Don’t quite me on that. Anyway it’s on the scvotes.com results and data page.

If that holds through Election Day, it’s going to take “voter enthusiasm” to stand in line that long. That would bode well.

Do you talk with people while in line? Is it a conservative leaning area?

I can’t see how the the 18-24 crowd would but come out in lower numbers to vote D, not when they have a bunch of Karen juniors running around and reporting them for getting together with friends for drinks.

If anything, I would think there would be an uptick in people that age who would normally not vote at all vote R just to stick it to these Karens.
