Early voting trends show Democrats falling short in 3 of 4 battlegrounds

Article...

Polling indicates Joe Biden and the Democrats will win big. However, Democrats are falling short of the edge they need in early voting to offset the Republicans.
quote:
If pollsters adjusted to fix 2016 mistakes, the RealClearPolitics average in each state shows Biden winning 341-197 and Democrats taking control of the Senate.

However, if people are simply scared to give their opinion to pollsters, another option is to look at the breakdown of who has actually voted. Forbes polling indicates that roughly half of all voters plan to vote early, with 62 percent of Democrats planning to vote early while 72 percent of Republicans plan to wait and vote on election day. If that happened and independents split evenly (last time Trump won them), then Democrats would need to win early voting at least 70-30 to be on pace to barely overcome a 31-69 disadvantage in partisan election day votes.

Early voting always favors democrats. If early voting numbers are falling short for them, it's not a good sign for them. But this is a fricked up election so who knows.

I like the article.
Breeding overconfidence in a rabid pack of STD infested chihuahuas will surely work this time.

If I would have handed an English paper with this statement:
Followed by this:
I would still be in 9th grade. For the 30th time.

They didn't, it is on purpose at this point. They are setting a narrative.

Forbes polled 2 to 1 for dems (60% of dems will vote early and only 30% of reps) voting early. Dems are twice as likely to fear covid contraction. Joe has no enthusiasm. Dems are simply moving votes that would normally be made on Election Day to early voting. Election Day will be a red tidal wave.

A strong ground game is crucial to Democrats, normally including collecting ballots everywhere from college campuses to nursing homes, and on election day driving thousands of vans filled with likely supporters to the polls. None of that is happening because of COVID, and the first time they tried to win an election with no ground game resulted in a double digit loss.
The fact that Republicans were knocking on a million doors a week compared to none for Biden until the final weeks will result in Republicans winning election day by millions of votes. So far the Democrats have not built the 70-30 edge they need in early voting to wrap up a win.

Doesn’t early voting end in most states today?

Texas goes through Friday or Saturday.
As of today, 46 percent of Texas registered voters have voted by mail or in person. In 2016, the entire early voting period, 43.5 percent voted early.

I just don’t see how the Dems could overcome such a poor ground game. I know they have the national media in their pocket but knocking on millions of doors has to count for something when the other side is doing nothing.

Don’t fall for this. They’re just trying to get the rest of them to vote

They have no reason to, they won't be held accountable.
Remember, Liberals fail UPWARD as long as they proclaim their hatred for Conservatives, Christianity and America loudly enough.

What does that even mean? I'm trying to wrap my head around it.

The Republican ground game talking points have been going around for months, I just don't know if I can believe that they've actually outpaced the Dems by that much in the ground game. If they actually have, bravo, they will win this thing.
