It’s not R+5, it’s R+2 as an earlier poster mentioned (the thread title is misleading).
It’s not R+anything nationwide in early voting. It’s D+ in Iowa, Florida, North Carolina, Ohio, Maryland and West Virginia that I know of. Only Colorado, of all the swing states, is R+. The early voting page at gwu.edu has the 2008 and 2012 numbers.
The good news, supposedly, is that in all cases the ‘D+’ number is lower than it was in 2008 and therefore somehow magically indicates a Romney win IF IF IF IF IF election day voting patterns hold up to what the so-called experts expect AND if Massive Democrat Vote Fraud isn’t too much.
I now. I was saying “If” it’s R+5 nationally after all is said and done....
I think, as per Darth, that VA is plus R in early voting.
Idiot. McCain did better on election day in OH, FL, NC and VA on election day than Obama. That’s McCain with no groundgame McCain and he still beat Obama on election day.
Fast forward to today. All their margins are severely reduced. In NC, it was 21 points in 2008 and obama only won by 0.4%. Today it’s abou 16 points and we should win by 5 to 8%. That’s not even counting the increased crossovers from dems and favorable indie ratios this year compared to 08.
It would be helpful if you knew what you were talking about.
