    Exclamation TX-Early voting results: 44% of all registered voters have voted - 53% GOP - 38% Dem

    Texas Early Ballot Returns Show Recent Polls Are Wrong As GOP Dominates 53% to 37%

    Youth Vote as a Percentage Collapses


    https://www.toptradeguru.com/news/el...lls-are-wrong/

    By Evan Post date Oct 24

    With 6,209,849 ballots cast, the GOP dominates the early vote. 53% GOP to 37% DEM. About 44% of all registered voters have voted.

    Source: NBCNews.

    Youth Vote as a Percentage Collapses

    Particularly worrisome for Democrats trying to turn the state blue was the absence of youth voters as a percentage. Because voting is up 194% from this time in 2016, raw numbers show the youth vote up. However, as a percentage of full demographic, they makeup only 11%. In 2016 they were 19% of the electorate. Young people are not showing up.

    Polls Appear To Be Wrong

    Republicans are expected to have a swell of voters cast ballots as we approach November 3rd, 2020. This is because some Republicans are wary of casting mail-in ballots.

    This week three polls were released that show Biden and Trump even. The early vote data does not support this claim because it’s expected the share of GOP voters will only increase from now to election day.

    There are people on this very board who are saying they didn't vote for Trump in 2016 and will be in 2020.

    Seeing all the crap the democrats pulled on Trump for the past four years, it's a wonder anybody would vote against him.

    TX media polls have been almost tied, would be surprising if Trump did not win it. TX is also home of controversial CUFI with many evanagelicals, embassy move will further boost Trump there.

    FL will lbe key in deciding who will win White House, influential CUFItes there tend to be on the liberal/non-Christian/non-denomnational-Christian side relatively, like a mix of NYC & TX.

    RCP shows the last two TX polls as one tied, one for Biden by 1.7 points.

    Early voting data shows Trump with a 15 point lead in Texas.

    Either the early voting data is skewed wrong somehow, or the biggest "$#@! You" ever, aimed at the punditocracy, talking heads, Marxist media organs and pollsters, is shaping up.

    Or it could be that the polling firms are as corrupt as the Marxist media organs are and have, universally, been reporting fake numbers on purpose.

    Maybe this is a sign. I was listening Dave Rubin's podcast and the Dilbert guy was on. He said he did a poll where he asked if people actively lied about who they were voting for this election cycle and hundreds answered yes.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Trump supporters fukked with the pollsters. This could have a very funny, and thereby, very violent end.

    10 people in my family have voted Trump. None of us voted since the last time Ron ran for POTUS.
    We have not answered any polls.

    Pretty much the same here...I wrote in Ron in 2016...this year, well...me, Mrs AF, all five of my kids and stepkids, mom, dad, brother, three SIL, MIL, ex-Mrs.AF and pretty much everybody I work with have all said at some point they are voting Trump.

    Politico put out a poll today saying biden has slight edge in texas while exit polling shows trump leading by 15 . That tells you how good these polls are.

    Young voters down by as much as an expected ten percent in texas so far looks like . Considering they mostly want student loan forgiveness that does not favor the dem.

    This couldn't be further from the truth.

    The vast majority of people on this board who are voting for him this time did not vote for him last time, including me.

    Then you have Tim Pool, his audience and many independent voters who are moving to vote for Trump this time around. Tim Pool claimed only a year or two ago he would never vote for Trump. Now he is voting for him - for ending the wars, they are scared of the riots, the left has gone completely crazy, the left lies about Trump every day in the media. Tim is from Chicago and knows tons of family members and friends there who are voting for Trump who have been Democrats their whole lives, primarily because of the BLM riots that have destroyed their city.

    9 million Obama voters voted for Trump last time.

    Republicans are picking up new voter registrations at a much higher rate than Democrats in key swing states.

    Trump's support has grown immensely since last election.

    What is the source of this number?
    This AP report just out seems to suggest it's hard to know:

    But what that it all means for Texas is far from clear. Voters don’t register by party in the state, making it difficult to know which party or presidential candidate has an edge.

    Polls are unusually close in Texas, but neither President Donald Trump or Democrat Joe Biden has swung through Texas, focusing on clear battleground states instead like Arizona and Florida.

    The striking numbers are across the board — in big cities that are solidly Democrat, in tipping-point suburbs where Republicans are losing ground and, to a lesser extent, in heavily Latino counties along the border. In Harris County, home to Houston, more than 1 million votes have already been cast.
    Democrats have long believed a breakthrough was only a matter of rousing millions of nonvoters, particularly within the state’s booming Latino population. Roughly 50% of voters currently registered to vote in Texas have never voted or vote infrequently, according to the voter information firm L2.
    A turnout surge could come with major political consequences. Democrats believe they have a shot at winning control of the statehouse, a half-dozen competitive U.S. House races and a Senate seat, not to mention 38 electoral votes that could seal the deal for Biden.
    Republicans say Democrats are getting way ahead of themselves as usual, but are also clear-eyed that the final turnout will likely be historic.
    Derek Ryan, a GOP data analyst, predicted this week that Texas turnout would likely surpass 12 million, or roughly 3 million more voters than 2016 — more than the population of neighboring New Mexico.

    But yea, polls can be very fake, would be surprising if they are not manipulated.
    Have to view polls as rough indictor in conjunction with other discernible indicators.

    I know someone who says she doesn't like Trump much but she will be voting for him as a protest against the insulting manipulation of the fake news media. She doesn't like Trump but she doesn't like being treated like she is stupid even more.

    I think this crystalizes an unseen "shy Trump voter" bloc. They are saying to friends they are voting for Biden just to keep the peace but in the booth they will vote for Trump.

    Interesting. Florida is a "must win" state. Look at what's going on in Pennsylvania. Democrats are out pacing Republicans on returned mail in ballots 3 to 1, but 91% of Republicans say they typically vote on election day.

    Then NBC is full of $#@! and we're right back to square one, since there is no accurate way to get a line on early voting results, other than requests for ballots or early voting identified by at least party affiliation. Anything else is a wild assed guess.

    Polls are unusually close in Texas, but neither President Donald Trump or Democrat Joe Biden has swung through Texas, focusing on clear battleground states instead like Arizona and Florida.
    Candidates generally will not waste time campaigning in states considered a "lock" for one side or the other.

    Biden's not liable to show up in Alabama any more than Trump is going to in Vermont.

    That tells me their "internals" show a clear win for Trump in Texas and to carry on with other close, key state campaigns.
