If “early voting” favors Republicans, it will soon be gone.
So if the dems come out and vote at the last minute instead of thinking Trump will win we could find out Harris wins. Ugh.
Correct—more analysis on early voting and what it tells us about this election:

Overall early vote is down. But Rep vs Dem is up in more than just these 3.
See post 4—almost half of President Trump’s voters told Pew they would be voting in person on election day.
Whatley said this morning that in some states about 15% of R’s early voting didn’t vote in 2020. so low propensity voters, i guess.
Not clear if “mail in” means USPS or if it includes drop-box.
This is great news, but it means nothing unless you stopped the steal. And, as we have already seen in early voting, the steal is alive and well.
Wouldn't take much ... a slight shading on one side of the envelope, some other mark or random numbers somewhere on the envelope that normal people would ignore but postal Newmans are trained to look for and cull, and a hundred other ways.
Get the stereotype of government workers just being disinterested drones pushing paper around and watching the clock out of your head. We have previous years' evidence that they are very interested in a Democratic Party win by any means.
But what about early ballot manufacturing?
They should count them when early voting ends just before Election Day. Results should be posted.
I’m precinct election judge, just left a short training review session this morning.
The Country Clerk said 1/3 of the registered voters have already voted and that they had heavy days where there were actually waiting lines to vote. (the entire county has less than 5,000 people in it)
The voters are determined. They are clearly angry and motivated.
“The voters are determined. They are clearly angry and motivated.”
That is good to hear.
Thats fine with me...we’ll just go back to election day only.
Not necessarily. Republicans so far are doing a very good job of turning out their no propensity (ie voted in 0 of the last 4 elections) and low propensity (voted in 1 of the last 4 elections) voters. Still waiting in the wings are their high propensity voters to storm the polling places on election day. Meanwhile, the Democrats aren't doing nearly as good of a job of turning out their base...ie African American vote is down, Latino women are down, etc.
It keeps the Lazy dims off the lines also!
I’m very hesitant to put any weight on early voting numbers. It’s just voters casting a ballot early. Iprefer to vote on election day because I don’t want to give poll workers an early chance to swap my ballot out for a Harris vote.
