Is high turnout good for Dems or GOP in Montana?

Good for Bullock's chances.

I pray you're right.

[Lief 🗽]

Trust the Montana Democratic Party. They know what they're doing.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Trust the Montana Democratic Party. They know what they're doing.

It'll suck though if the GOP gets a trifecta in the state and can roll back Montana's labor laws, some of the most progressive in the country.

Can the Montana Democratic Party take control of the Florida Democratic Party?

[Bootes Void]

Broward Dems should get up to 85% or more turnout by election day

Lots of mail ballots still left out here. Does anyone know in Florida, if you havent sent in your mail ballot, or havent recieved confirmation of it being recieved, could you still switch to vote it in person?

I wanna know about the unreturned mail ballots cause it might be a bit concerning

In theory, your supposed to bring your unused ballot to a polling place so an election worker can spoil it. But in practice, as long as you don't send it in, you can just vote in person with no issue. As I noted previously, my sister got an absentee ballot but chose to vote in person and didn't run into any problems.

Not sure how many absentees are expected but this is pretty pathetic turnout compared to the rest of the country's early voting. NY election administration really needs a total overhaul.

Well at least Biden doesn’t have to worry about losing New York. Imagine if this screws over Max Rose, though.

[BudgieForce]

I suspect the majority of New Yorkers used mail in ballots.

[Bootes Void]

No,I think most will vote in person on election day. NY is not a mail in ballot state

[Flo 2.0]

No,I think most will vote in person on election day. NY is not a mail in ballot state

even then the mail in ballots don't get started to be counted until nov. 6 in that foolish state

I'm not a huge AOC fan, but the woman is 100% right when it comes to New York's pitiful, Medieval electoral infrastructure and how it needs overhauling.

Actually, I guess I AM an AOC fan because I really appreciate how she focuses on commonsense issues that can get overwhelming support like "New York sucks at elections management." That's a really impressive sign of a talented pol: building ad hoc coalitions on issues with people you might not agree on with other stuff.

Anyway, Lief is 100% right that this voter turnout # is a disgrace to NY. NY should do better. It'd literally be easier to vote in f**king Alabama or Mississippi than NY.

Never forget how it took almost a month to get the full results in NY-27 over the summer. An election where only around 150K voted. Or the extremely dramatic blue shift from that race. New York's elections are pretty much the sole reason there's so much dooming about how it may take weeks to know who wins the White House.

Democrats are at 66% turnout in Florida.

[Non Swing Voter]

What I am optimistic about in Florida, if you look into the numbers, more independents voted by mail rather than voted early in person.  This tells me that on balance they were worried about coronavirus, which tells me they are probably leaning Biden by a fair amount. 

Right now Trump probably still needs excellent turnout on Election Day and I'm not sure it's there for him.  They reported that at the Florida rally tonight Trump asked people if they had already voted and almost everyone in the crowd raised their hand.  There is a very real possibility that Democrats keep pace with Republicans in Florida when all is said and done and then it comes down to Independents.  I'd rather be Biden in that scenario.

[Holmes]

Democrats are at 66% turnout in Florida.

Hopefully with Miami-Dade and Sarasota along with VBM arrivals, they can get to 68ish.
