Early voting map: How to make sense of presidential election data
More than 59 million early votes have been cast this year, nearly 40% of the total in 2020.

There's no democratic firewall in PA. That was, as far as I can tell, made up by a college student.Apparently everyone has a different number on what the democratic firewall is in PA, but looks like the early vote lead is about 380K without counting independents.
177K unaffiliated ballots are in, so if that is 60/40 in Harris’ favor then the lead would already be 400k+
I don’t know about party ID, but i do know we’ve already surpassed 2012 and 2016 early voting totals.Any numbers on how early voting looked by party in 2016 vs 2024?
There have been a ton of Harris signs all over WS the last couple of weeks. The intersection of Peace Haven and Country club had Harris signs every few feet until a few days ago. My next door neighbor has that same Wu-Tang sign.Obviously unscientific, but in 2016 and 2020 the Trump and Clinton/Biden signs were very evenly matched in my neighborhood outside of Winston. This year there’s way more Harris signs than Trump. Running a close third to the Trump signs are 2 that say “Presidents are temporary, Wu-Tang is forever.”
There are a few of those Wu-Tang signs in my neighborhood. Also some “Grateful Dead is forever” signs. I think I’ve seen another like that but can’t remember who it was.Obviously unscientific, but in 2016 and 2020 the Trump and Clinton/Biden signs were very evenly matched in my neighborhood outside of Winston.

nycfan’s post on the previous page from the WP showed early votes to be heavily for Harris but also noted Clinton had similar leads in 2016. There are more early votes this election and the electorate and stakes are different. That’s not to say it can’t happen again, but like seeing Harris up big early. Just have to build on that. Also looks like she’s hitting every swing state down the stretch.I don’t know about party ID, but i do know we’ve already surpassed 2012 and 2016 early voting totals.

Of course you do your whole game is negativity cloaked in "concern" I'm thinking you might be a version of a new Putin AI bot. But even a bot and AI would at least change their programming when they realize it's not working?A prediction on the topic of turnout....
I believe there will be around 5%-10% fewer votes for R and D this election and less votes overall when compared to 2020.
Yes, even if the percentages are the same as Hillary, she’s likely in better shape given the raw numbersnycfan’s post on the previous page from the WP showed early votes to be heavily for Harris but also noted Clinton had similar leads in 2016.

Saw David Plouffe on Chris Hayes last night and all he would say is that it’s a tight race in every swing state but he’d rather be in the position of the Harris campaign right now. Said it more than once. His expression was that of a stone faced poker player, but it looked a little like he was holding back ha.
Probably because of all the spineless idiots voting 3rd Party.A prediction on the topic of turnout....

I literally dislike Unaffiliated greatly . Binary Choice-pick a side babiesNorth Carolina update:
“…
Compared to data from 2020 at the same point — five days before Election Day — 2024 is experiencing a slight uptick in in-person early voting but a marked drop in absentee ballots counted. Both rates have gone up since 2016.
At this point in 2020, approximately 3.9 million voters had cast ballots, with 3.03 million casting ballots at in-person early voting locations and 864,929 voters casting ballots absentee.
At this point in 2016, approximately 2.35 million voters had voted early, with about 2.22 million in person at early voting locations and 132,328 absentee ballots.
So far this year, Republican voters have cast more votes than Democrats or unaffiliated voters. Republicans make up 29.89 percent of the state’s registered voters; 52.63 percent of them have already cast votes, making up 33.97 percent of total votes cast.
Democrats make up 31.28 percent of the state’s voters; 48.38 percent of them have voted, accounting for 32.68 percent of the votes cast.
Unaffiliated voters are the state’s largest bloc of registered voters, at 37.8 percent. Those voters lag in votes cast, at 40.09 percent, making up 32.73 percent of total votes cast.“

Well, there IS a number. No one knows what it is. But we will know after the votes are all in what it was.There's no democratic firewall in PA. That was, as far as I can tell, made up by a college student.
