Can anyone explain why Election Day 10% advantage or less for Trump in Florida is troublesome for him? I thought Republicans already had a 12% advantage in early voting in Florida? https://election.lab.ufl.edu/early-vote/2024-early-voting/2024-general-election-early-vote-florida/
It's using Florida's win margin as a proxy. Trump has won Florida no doubt. Read the full tweet and he explains it. Duval county FL is also another one where if Trump wins that it correlates with the statewide GA results very well traditionally.

I get that Florida is not in doubt and is being used as an early estimate what may happen in other states.

But in 2020 Democrats had about a 100k advantage in Florida in total votes (early + election days) when looking at party registration, yet Trump won Florida by about 400k.

In 2024, Republicans have a 800k advantage in early voting. Why would they need 10%+ plus on Election Day to be a positive indicator for Trump in other states? It seems if he just holds ground on Election Day in Florida, he blows 2020 out of the water.
To show enthusiasm, and that you didn't cannibalize your ED vote with EV.

It's a proxy for what analysts think the rest of the country will do. Basically a measure of voter enthusiasm around election day turnout.

For show. But they do have a 15 seat state(territory?) senate 9D- 6R.

Prepare for heartbreak. F these people


On X I saw there are at least 18 polling places having issues with their machines right now and several could take hours to resolve. Almost all being in rural counties. No this is not on purpose at all.


Even with that happening, the initial reactions from PA are very positive for Trump…. Just have to hope the voters don't get discouraged by this "accidental" setback

People had two whole weeks to vote early to avoid election day shenanigans. Of course the steal is on in battleground states.

Lots of rain today in the swing states of WI and MI. Better get all those mail/drop box ballots inside behind closed doors. Oops, looks like a bunch of Trump ballots got wet, better replace those with new Harris ballots.

Lots of optimism for a red wave in here. I was the same way on the 2020 election thread…hoping this time it pans out

This is great for the Dems... 80% of those GOP voters are women whose #1 concern is abortion!

If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.


If one side wins, pain and misery for the future.

If the other side wins, riots and chaos brought on by the other side for the next four years.

It's great we had a quick response, but after 2020, we should have had the lawyers there with the poll watchers.

And you know when counting starts this evening, they will find a way to kick the GOPers out.

Interesting breakdown of Pinellas County. Trump is up 18% over 2016.

My understanding from a few GOP Texas insiders is that the GOP made PA and AZ two of the top priorities for their legal teams to deploy to…

I don't understand how anyone can say elections are fair and free when you need an army of lawyers to make it so.
