GOP-affiliated voters have surpassed Democratic-affiliated ones in early voting in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Montana, Tennessee and Texas, the data showed.
Only in Nevada have Democratic-affiliated voters exceeded Republican-affiliated voters so far in early voting, according to the data…This seems sort of counterintuitive at this point. Even in years where the GOP has done well, they were still out performed by Democrats in early voting. While I understand that the GOP has become "more" motivated in the past few weeks, I would have expected that the Democrats had a running start on this deal.
So no matter how you cut it, this is not a good sign for the Democrats and their hopes of the big blue wave.

Still whistling past the grave yard CH???? You seem to be getting desperate which is most amusing...And trump lying his fat white ass off confirms he too is concerned with the early turnout in spite of your hope in a liberal model of voters affiliation....too funny!!!!
President Trump has lobbed some whoppers during his 19 months in office: Democrats are organizing a caravan of Honduran migrants hoping to enter the United States illegally. US Steel is building six new steel mills. His poll numbers are the highest ever for a Republican president.
If none of those is your favorite, there are nearly 5,000 other lies and misstatements Trump has uttered since becoming president. And then there’s a new one.
With the midterm elections two weeks away, Trump now says the White House is planning a “major tax cut for middle-income people” that he’ll reveal right before the election. Trump told reporters Oct. 22 that he’ll produce a “resolution” calling for a 10% tax cut for middle-income earners.
For those wondering if it really works this way—no, the president can’t roll out a tax cut on short notice like this. There’s no procedure for cutting taxes via presidential resolution. Only Congress can initiate a tax cut (or hike) and Congress is out of session until after the midterms. So it’s impossible for Trump to cut taxes in time to buy your vote, as he seems to wish he could.
Trump mentioned this new tax cut idea in a session with reporters after a Nevada rally on Oct. 20. One can only imagine the urgent questions among Trump’s aides: Does he really mean it? Are we now going to make it look like there’s an actual plan for this? Or will this be a one-time, fire-and-forget Trumpism?
Looks like it’s a keeper. On Sunday, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin tried to make it sound like there’s a thorough plan in the works, telling the New York Times, “this is specifically focused on the middle class and not

Funny, you probably think that out of shape reporter started a fist fight with 15 young thugs and was mistakenly killed like trump...sad

Youth voter turnout in 2018 primaries has also significantly increased in key battleground states compared to 2014. Turnout for voters aged 18-29 in Colorado has nearly tripled, from 4.2 percent to 11.7 percent. Youth turnout in North Dakota has also nearly tripled, from 4.8 percent to 11.7 percent, and it has increased sevenfold in Virginia, from 0.5 percent to 3.6 percent. Other states with significant increases in youth voter turnout include California (+9.3), Oklahoma (+17.9), and Montana (+6).
NYT opinion of the current lies which CH embraces like a rabid dog...
With Republicans struggling to keep their grip on Congress, President Trump is dialing up the demagogy. At campaign rallies and on social media, he’s spewing dark warnings about a Democratic mob clamoring to usher in an era of open borders, rampant crime, social chaos and economic radicalism.
As is so often the case, Mr. Trump is not letting reality interfere with his performance. At a rally in Nevada this weekend, the president told the crowd that Californians were rioting to “get out of their sanctuary cities.” (They aren’t.) He also suggested that Democrats will soon be looking to hand out free luxury cars to illegal immigrants. (They won’t.) “Give ’em a driver’s license. Next thing you know, they’ll want to buy ’em a car,” he riffed. “Then they’ll say the car’s not good enough, we want — how about a Rolls-Royce?”
MS 13 ia coming to your local city CH....be afraid....
Mr. Trump’s Twitter feed has been electrifying as well, full of statements intended to thrill his fans — and, better still, bait his opponents into a partisan rage. In recent days, he has dubbed Stormy Daniels “Horseface,” escalated his taunting of Senator Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas” and grumbled about the fact that Bruce Ohr, one of Mr. Trump’s nemeses in the “rigged” Russian “witch hunt,” is still employed by the Department of Justice. He has asserted that the Democratic nominee for governor in Florida, Andrew Gillum, is looking to turn the state into “the next Venezuela.” He has threatened to dispatch troops to shut down the southern border and renewed his vow to cut off the “massive foreign aid” sent to El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras for those nations’ failure to stop their people from flocking to the United States.
In particular, the caravan of Honduran migrants making its way north has emerged as a focus of his fantasies. Mr. Trump has repeatedly implied that Democrats are paying Honduran youth to join the caravan. On Monday, he claimed, based on nothing, that the caravan is awash in “criminals and unknown Middle Easterners.”
The BS is sounding more ominous daily...MS 13 is coming and knows who you are CH....Opinion from the times

Still whistling past the grave yard CH?
Sure, Denny. If citing early voting numbers (aka tangible relevant information) is akin to whistling past the grave yard in your mind, then that is exactly what I am doing.
That being said, I am not actually afraid of grave yards. How bout you?
