Early voting - battleground states

It is a good question. What matters is whether the GOP turnout is new voters who are eager to make their choice, or if they are simply cannibalizing voters who are simply voting early instead of on election day. Remains to be seen.  This is why IMHO the polling averages and trends tend to matter more than simple early  turnout.

Another point of note - the Dems had an early voting lead of 1.1 million over the GOP back in 2020. They lost the election day turnout by a vast margin. 

 

IMO, they need to be ahead 900,000 this time to be confident of victory. Absolute minimum of 700,000 and that will give the DNC sleepless nights. Current lead is around 400,000. 

 

To clarify. That post was referring to Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania will be in the Harris column thanks to the wonderful and large PUERTO RICAN community there. So when Trump loses the election, instead of blaming the Jews (as he has disgustingly said he will do if he loses) perhaps he will blame the Puerto Ricans too. My hope is this attention will stimulate a fresh push for Puerto Rican STATEHOOD.

You don't know anything about Puerto Ricans and how they have been so disrespected and not seen as the citizens that they are, the history of Puerto Rico, the previous racist attacks by Trump on Puerto Ricans, and the disgusting way Trump mistreated Puerto Ricans after their two big storms, cutting off aid but throwing paper towels at them like zoo animals during his term with the clear reason that he didn't worry about their state in the next election because they're not a state, do you?

It wasn't an off color joke.

It was a PUNCH DOWN RACIST attack at a white nationalist event.

Also that was vetted by the Trump campaign and they approved it!

So when they say now it doesn't reflect them, they are LYING. 

A white nationalist event? With holocaust survivors, Hindus, Jews, and African Americans all speaking... in support of the man who promoted the Abraham Accords and moved the US Embassy to Jerusalem, and has Jewish grandkids. 

 

Sure, "white nationalist". Pull the other one, it has bells on.

Nevada - Jon Ralston, a Dem analyst, is reporting that only 250,000 early votes have been received in Clark County. In 2020, it was 457,000. 

 

Clark County is a Dem stronghold. Trump's no tax on tips policy has the Catering Union sitting on its hands. Won't vote for him, won't vote against. 

 

Political malpractice again? Trump beat Harris to the punch. She has adopted the same policy but Trump has all the headlines. 

 

If Clark County doesn't show up for the Dems, it's a certainty than Nevada goes red.

Why do you assume that PR-Americans have no sense of humour? Or that they are so shallow that an off-colour joke would prompt them to vote against their own family interests? Talk about the soft bigotry of low expectations!

Clark County mailed out ballots late this year. There are still 1.6 million ballots yet to be received by the county.

 

The people who sent you the talking points didn't tell you the whole story.

As Early Vote in Nevada enters final week, Culinary Union drives Nevada’s strongest political program with statewide “Trump is for Trump” billboard campaign and 900,000+ door-knocking canvassing program -

 

The people sending you talking points are lying to you.

As usual, expressing your ignorance in a rant based on nothing you have ever studied yourself vis a vis just regurgitating the propaganda you read on MSNBC and CNN

Is that what happened? The joke was about the island, not the identity of .... why am I trying to explain a joke?

 

Suffice to say that the problem of waste in Puerto Rico has been in the news, it is well known among informed people.  Therefore a valid topic for humour.

 

Democrats are grasping at straws to fake outrage at a joke that a comedian told, rather than grappling with the actual issues that voters care about.

Trump's mismanagement of the Hurricane Maria tragedy is the basis of the Puerto Rican distaste of Trump.

Are you Puerto Rican? Ever been there?

 

Oh, and your celebrities? Folks who pay attention to those vacuous hedonists usually vote Democratic anyway.
