Early voter turnout in Kansas ahead of Tuesday’s election is significantly higher than it was at this point in 2018, the last midterm primary election. As of Wednesday, 110,697 votes have been cast in person, according to the Kansas Secretary of State. That’s more than three times the number of votes counted than at this point in 2018: Only 32,004 early votes had been cast at this point four years ago. That’s a roughly 246% increase in early in-person votes.

Do you think the increase is driven by the economy or the abortion issue?

Advanced voter fraud by democrats. Main in voting is like spreading honey on table. It will attract flies.

*mail in voting

[Skwor]

Fraud, just lets them manipulate the vote mow, voting is all lies now.

[CrazyCatChick]

I think this is early in-person. Mail-in is double.

[napscoordinator]

Abortion. But it could be either side making the difference.

[napscoordinator]

These are actually people showing up. Kansas has never had even a whisper of voter fraud.

[packagingguy]

It’s the economy. When I early voted it took over an hour in line. The vast majority of people voting were Republicans, and this is a blue city. You could tell them from the Democrats quite easily.

[Revel]

Early voting is part of the recipe for major vote fraud.

[FroedrickVonFreepenstein]

I’m in Kansas. I’d say it’s the abortion amendment.

[Old Yeller]

Abortion issue. We lose this and Kansas will come under Gods judgement the way California has.

[Recompennation]

How’s comparing with “the most fair and transparent election ever ,-,2020” ?
wiping disgust from my face,
spit and curse vehemently
Gainful non government full time employment verified history to vote, the freebee voters have got to go before they overload their cart

[Tudorfly]

What could possibly go wrong?

[sipow]

Economy all the way.

[Sacajaweau]

My guess is that more folks are voting in person and mail in voting is going to be a lot less. People no longer trust the mail in system.

Number 1 isssue...The economy...abortion is a separate little circle and is used to rabble rouse the Dem vote. Same MO...different year.

Abortion issue.

[peggybac]

I’m curious how my deceased, life long conservative parents will be voting.

[peggybac]

Abortion

[peggybac]

I’m afraid we’ll lose.

Are you serious? God will judge as individuals. Be worried about what your life is like and what others lives are like.
