The absentee/early vote thread

[Tender Branson]

This election seems to be shaping up quite different to other recent presidential elections in some states, according to early voting reports:

In Iowa for example, absentee ballot requests are down significantly compared with 2012. On Oct. 28 it was 550K requested, but at the same time in 2012 it was already 600K. A sign of overall lower turnout.

On the other hand in TX, early voting so far is 150% of 2012 - which could be a sign of overall higher turnout (TX already had one of the shi**iest turnout rates anyway, so this would be good).

There could be some real surprises on election day and the map could look not familiar to a traditional US presidential election map ...

In LA on the other hand, the early vote is already 102% of that in 2012.

Registered Dems have a 5% advantage there among the early vote (it was D+17 in 2012 and D+30 in 2008).

Very concerning...Maybe the Comey crap is hurting Clinton afterall.

Also the gap in Colorado has decreased as Republicans are closing to around ~2.5%...Sad.

Trump is out performing Romney in Florida, Ohio, Iowa, and Nevada.

Oh lord people, calm the f down

The bedwetting is only going to get worse.

It's in our nature...

I expect the media  will keep pounding on Clinton for the next 7 days...Some bed wetting is common sense.

But yet you decided to bash me over the past couple weeks, when I told you exactly this ... that the race will narrow down.
