It's my understanding that Pre-Trump Republicans actually had the edge on early voting. Trump was leery of it so there was a Republican cutback. Trump has been advocating for early voting so we are likely going to either see early voting either break even or we might even see the Republicans go back to having the edge. So simply put, for better or worse, Trump is that influential.

Some are afraid there will be some kind of cyber attack or other incident on Election Day that will prevent more conservative areas from voting. I think this happened in Maricopa, Arizona last election. I have heard this on Dan Bongino’s show. He is advising conservatives to bank their vote early to prevent these shenanigans.

I don't recall hearing a message to vote early for Trump.


Trump's been pushing it hard. The only question is how much will his day-of leads be reduced. The only benefit to this is his day-of leads will not be wiped out by midnight dumps of hundreds of thousands of votes at a 90-10 democrat clip.

Just read on FOX that just a little over 25% of voters in GA have already early voted.

Republicans usually vote early. 2020 is the big exception historically because Dems were afraid of Covid

Yeah, a benefit of voting early is that it allows your side to target people who haven’t voted yet for harassment which drives up turnout in the whole. Trump’s strategy this time has involved turning out young men who don’t usually vote in high numbers, so there is an incentive to get the rest of MAGA votes cast so that they can really turn the juice up on the boys

They want the votes banked asap for a few reasons:

#1) - Once someone banks their vote, their name gets removed from the ballot chaser list. This saves tons of money and resources. The RNC can chase ballots a lot more effective.

#2) - False Flag event created by Democrats.

#3) - Weather events
