Fifty-one percent of voters say they’ll vote early, either by mail or in person, with Vice President Kamala Harris leading former President Donald Trump 61%-35% (a 26-point margin) among those voters.

That’s a sweet lead considering we’re not in a pandemic and the numbers mirror 2020s.

Yeah, I voted early. It definitely felt democratic heavy just from people who were taking the helper slip from the Democratic guy rather than the Republican lady. My city is usually voting Republican in general.
Doesn’t really mean anything though – Voting day will be heavy on Republicans – so… can’t just read into Early Voting unless the number of people voting Early is somehow off the scale.

Unfortunately they don’t get counted early, they get counted last which means Trump will be leading all of election night and we’ll hear nonstop cries of fraud as Harris catches up.
Pretty much a replay of 2020.

This is the way.

I’m voting by mail just cause Trump doesn’t like it

Wait so a majority of voters are voting early and a majority of those voters are voting for Harris, yet the election is too close to call? I don’t get how every demographic outside white men semmingly is breaking significantly for Harris yet polls are still within the margin of error?

Charlie Kirk just tweeted that mail in early voting is good all of a sudden.
One way Republicans benefit from that is that males can force their wives to vote Republican.

i am a traditional early voter, but i think this year is the one to suck it up and vote the typical election day. too many states trying to pull shit with early or mail in ballots. I would trust in person early vs mail in.

The play, just like last time, is to claim that you won after they tally the same-day votes, then cry foul when they count the rest of the votes later, like mail in/ absentee votes, and claim you were cheated.

This is also a sign of enthusiasm to vote.

Now you know what Republicans will try to purge first

That’s why they fucked with USPS

So if the counting patterns mirror 2020 we could be in for another red mirage scenario which will unfortunately feed into right wing conspiracy theories. Hopefully they will be counted at the same time as election day ballots.

My tradition is that I early vote during the day on Halloween, though I have not yet dared to do it in costume.
sedatedlife on
The day my ballot hits my mailbox i am immediately filling it out and taking it to a official drop box not even chancing the mail. Then i will call my son my nieces and others close to me and pressure them to do the same. I will keep reminding till they have voted. Granted i have no doubt she will win Washington but i am not taking any chances.

Double check your state to make sure mail votes are counted at the same time or earlier than in person voting. Republicans will try to throw out any that are counted afterwards.

Please do not try and vote on Election Day. Just look at what they did to close down Springfield for the past 2 weeks. It will be like that everywhere in the battleground states.

Sent in my application for an absentee ballot just today.

My mother and her boyfriend just cast theirs today. For Harris. I’m pretty suspicious that he voted for Trump in 2016 if maybe not 2020, so I am really hopeful for a good outcome in November.
(I am overseas and need to do whatever to get my vote in still, but I guess it’ll be early despite how much I procrastinate.)

That red mirage late November 5th is going to be infuriating again.
theschoolorg on
voting early tomorrow for Harris. I’m not sure if she’s the one yet, but we’re inching closer to a Democratic party that is closer in touch with the young people. Age and term limits for everyone, please.

This is encouraging but don’t believe it. Vote anyway. To be extra for sure sure.

I vote with a mail-in ballot, but I always deliver it to a ballot box in person.

I vote early in person in Florida and I like how our results are counted before Election Day and reported when the polls close so we see the results asap. I feel like I’m contributing as much as I can to speed up the counting
Chemistry11 on
It’s out of time and convenience that I have to, but I’ll be voting early and for Harris

Why does the news media not want people to vote?
therealjerrystaute on
I believe if more voters knew the huge difference in convenience between voting early, and voting on election day, they’d flock to the early booths. Can’t believe just 51% planning to at the moment.
I hope those in minority communities targeted by the GQP for vote suppression especially take the early route, as the Republicans main roadblocks for them seem to be concentrated on election day itself.

Yooo this is exactly the info I needed to build my election day prediction spreadsheet.
