Just a hair under 36 Million votes. 10 million votes away from breaking the record.

Just a reminder, Steve Schale, analyzing the early vote, predicted Democrats would win the big races in Florida in 2014, 2016, and 2018. So be careful with his analysis.

What I remember from 2016 was his posting angstily about Democrats holding onto their absentee ballots and not sending them in.

There just can’t be that many left after so many years. The Panhandle is less than 10% of the state’s population and the smallest counties haven’t started in person voting.

Turnout among Dems is still strong in AZ: https://www.saguarostrategies.com/arizona-ballot-returns

Statewide:
Democrats 370,045
Republicans 276,305
Other 192,310

Maricopa:
Democrats 281,525
Republicans 218,631
Other 154,484

Yeah AZ is looking good. Even in 2018 Ds never had a lead like this. And they started counting today (online, it says our ballots were counted).

Personally I think this underestimates the Democratic lead. It has Pima (Tucson) at around 91,000 returned. This article from 3 days ago (!) had the returned ballots at already 197,000.

https://www.kold.com/2020/10/18/record-number-early-ballots-returned-pima-county/

Yep. Numbers just grew.

Total Ballots: 938k
D: 421k
R: 303k
I: 213k
Turnout: 22%
Party Adv: +118k Dem

Pretty noots.

You could do a Twitter "Advanced Search" and look at his tweets from that time period.

Escambia, Oscoloosa, and Bay counties are fairly populous, are they not?

Did Jen O'Malley Dillon let it slip last week that Biden pretty much has AZ in the bag?

As we are talking about crazy high turnout:

Iowa's registered Democrats have returned 304,351 ballots (76.4%), which is 44.1% of all registered Democrats

She said something to the effect of "We're positive that we're going to win Arizona".

They’re not tiny, but together they have less than the population of 1 congressional district. I think of the Panhandle having 2 congressional districts out of 27.

They aren’t small, but the rest of Florida is huge in population.

It was the thread about her saying that the polls were inflated and Biden wasn't leading by double digits. Most think it was just a morale booster.

If these really are Biden's internals, overconfidence in AZ is, well, overconfident.
