Polls: Biden is doing better with seniors and independents which would suggest a higher level of cross-over support

Turnout: Can't reflect this, since it only shows party registration

Posters: ALARM!

Turns out the historic enthusiasm in 2008 was actually just a result of Biden being the VP nominee. Whooda thunk.

Really makes yesterday's complaining of young voters not turning out seem silly.

Looks like this one is over. The hubris of this campaign, not abandoning Florida a week ago when it was clear what was happening.



You've been banging this drum for at least a week now. Put your money where your mouth is, go on PredictIt, go long R/short D in FL, and show us your position.

RE: Florida, I will make a small concession to the doomers here and say that Republican turnout in the early vote hasn't petered off in quite the way I expected it to last weekend/this week. The observations others have made about NPA turnout and crossover support are true, but +116,000 is not a point in the partisan registration divide where I'd like to be heading into Election Day, given what we know about NPA splits and the number of Republicans we know will be voting on E-Day.

We have a weekend of early voting still to go, including the traditional voting Sunday for blacks. If Democrats can match their 2016 Sunday performance, when they banked ~87,000 votes statewide, I'd be feeling very confident in Biden's performance; if Democrats head into Election Day with an advantage of around 200,000, that's as close to a lock as you're gonna get. A moderately good weekend would see Democrats add maybe 30,000 — they'd still be favored to win at that point, but it might feel a little closer than would be comfortable. Obviously if Republicans hold even things will be very bad, and if they win early voting this weekend the doomers will be proven correct. Still, lot of hours to go.

What is it with folks in this thread ignoring the Indy/NPA/NPP votes? I'm getting real sick of it

Especially annoying when the NPA vote is acting very similarly to the D vote:

this bar chart is misleading.  It looks like they are even but there are more registered democrats than republicans. 

Democrats have more voters so they still maintain a 90k vote advantage.

The trendlines are looking good too.

Daily Turnout for the last 3 days:

Dem.         GOP
139,112   181,908   -42,796
146,089   194,282   -48,193
99,347   122,038   -22,691

GA finishes JUST short of overtaking 2016 turnout in early voting.



As a resident of Forsyth County, I'll point out that that increase in turnout almost exactly matches the county's population growth during the same period (estimated 220K in 2016 to 252K in 2020).

Which is excellent considering we have the biggest day of voting left to go. Should far outpace population growth by Tuesday.

Yeah, this area is growing like wildfire. It wasn't that long ago when Windermere was considered the boonies. I'm willing to bet the newer residents vote considerably more D than the older ones, if my neighborhood is any indication.

Da Numbers Guy's transformation from doomer to "hey this is looking ok" in the span of 5 days is Prestige Drama level quality.

Wow. If Forsyth ends up at ~140% of 2016 turnout on election day and the new voters split 60-40 Biden (both reasonable imo), it'll go Trump 63-Biden 37. Which is crazy.

60-40 Biden for new voters is a lot to ask in Forsyth. Let's say they split 50-50. Still a very favorable swing to Biden.
