I don't see it Jamo, all it means is Democrats that normally vote on Election Day are voting early now.
Could also mean people registered as Democrats are voting for Trump.
I just don't think you can use past metrics for this election.
While possible, that is a less convincing argument in light of the polls coming out of Florida. Possible? Yes. Supported by other data? Not really.
Could. But, again, see above.
That's a Jedi hand-wave. Not an argument.
I should have added this disclaimer to my earlier post. My 85% Republicans for Trump vs 91% Democrats for Hillary in Florida are %'s from MSM polls.
As much collusion we have seen between the DNC & MSM during this cycle, they probably shouldn't be trusted 100%.
For persons who are a Hillary supporters living in a states where the outcomes are well determined either way, such as in Kentucky or California, a good "cleansing" technique would be to vote for an independent. That way Hillary can go on to win the general election and those persons can spend the next four years claiming to be absolved from any accountability.
Jamo has been on here for months being completely pessimistic and critical of Trump, saying he has no chance and all of that.
I wasn't trying to make an argument, simply having a conversation with you.
Honestly, I don't think early voting means squat. A vote is a vote no matter when it occurs.
I do think many blue collar democrats are going to vote Trump.
Trump has gotten almost the same amount of early votes as Romney did, he hasn't lost anything. It's just that the Dems have voted early this year. Or at least registered democrat voters have.
Anyway, I'm watching the Cats dominate in football, and the Cubs make it to the World Series!!! Weird things are happening my man!
I don't think ive ever said "no chance" until The Tape dropped earlier this month (because it made Pennsylvania unrealistic for him). While anybody can have "a chance" at this stage, Trump's was no longer realistic after The Tape because it absolutely killed him in the collar counties of Philly.
What I have believed, though:
(1) it was an absolutely awful idea to nominate him
(2) he has one of the toughest paths to victory of any GOP candidate
(3) he runs an abysmal campaign. Absolutely abysmal.
(4) he'd be a totally incompetent and feckless POTUS who wouldn't do a damned thing that he's promising his voters
(5) it was all just a publicity stunt in the first place
I'm going to be a miserable bastahd until 2020 anyways, so why not?

Willy, bro, I hate these Mother Touchers so much, I may just vote mainstream this election cycle.
Go Trump man. We can't have Hillary. It will break us. You want to be living in Austin when Syrian Islam terrorists that Hillary let in blows up your city?
Jamo gets to walk into a store and buy weed. I'm not about to exude my jealousy. F'n asshole.
Don't even ask me about how nice the DMV is
Voted for Trump today. Was way more a vote against Hillary, but he's the lesser of two bad choices.
Strongly considered not voting but sometimes you just have to take a stand.
Said a prayer for our country and hope for the best.

I can attest to this. Have spent the last three months in Eugene & I'm about burnt out myself.
Hey that's cool man!
Anything jump out at you as "incompetent" about Clinton? Anything at all?
Dude! Colorado and Oregon remain on my short-term vacation list. Please add Vancouver. TIA.
Seattle and Vancouver have the nicest summers in North America. That's a fact.
I touching hate that and it makes me irrationally angry every time i have to abide by that law.
Co-worker is traveling to Vancouver tomorrow. I am officially jealous as hell.
Dude, I have not pumped gasoline since my last vacation in April. Cyclist to work and proud of it.
We are getting there, slowly. Personally speaking, I totally appreciate the awareness. Had a couple strokes back in '09. Love the awareness.
Overrated. My buddy in Colorado says the best thing about the law is the ability to home grow. Retail prices are super inflated.
Oregon, not Washington. And I'm not sure that there's any real rationale; it's prob just a vestigial law from some dumb lobbying effort.
Colorado has a very, very different system. While I personally have not indulged in recent memory, supposedly the retail experience in Washington is way more simple, but there aren't that many establishments; the opposite is true in Colorado.
I really looked hard at OR for proxy growing. Nearly pulled the trigger on some grow-room investments out there. Just could not convince the old lady.
They have quite a few that are even paved off road, weaving in & out of neighborhoods, through woods, under overpasses, over highways etc... It's their own little network & cyclists' highways. Pretty cool, actually. Pretty sure most of Oregon is like this. You'll dig it.
Someday I'll be driving the coast of Vancouver Island. Someday.
Thanks! I'm gonna hit it one of these days. I traveled much to Germany back in 2010-2013. Loved the routes. Austin is going in that direction, but very slowly. I so love the freedom.
I always assumed it was a "bunch of lazy guys who have an easy job and don't wanna be laid off bc they're inferior to simple technology" thing.
