U.S. Google Trends for "How to vote for Trump," "How to vote for Hillary" and "How to vote for Clinton" over the last 30 days show a spike in searches following the first and second presidential debates. Not surprising: People are fired up and want to know how to cast a vote!

But the data show one disparity worth noting: "How to vote for Trump" usually ranks higher than "How to vote for Clinton" and "How to vote for Hillary." There could be a number of reasons why, but the trend brings up one important point: Trump doesn't have as much support on the ground for voter registration as Clinton does....

Or perhaps it just indicates that more people WANT to vote for Trump.

Occam’s Razor.

Democrat Party voters are not dependent on people actually voting.

seriously.

ATTENTION ALL:

in FLORIDA, TOMMORROW IS THE LAST DAY TO REGISTER TO VOTE.

5PM is the official cut off!

(if you must risk it by mail, it must be postmarked tomorrow)

People seriously have to Google this? How many? Like 22?

I could almost understand it if the names were Johnson or Stein or whatever - of the other yahoos running, only Johnson is on all 50 state ballots. But Trump or Clinton? There can’t possibly be enough numbers here to indicate a trend among the Stupid Voter Block.

I keep hearing TRUMP doesn’t have a groundgame but isn’t the GOP helping him with that? & their operation which has been in the works for years is top notch!

There is a huge number of people in the US who NEVER vote. Therefore, they don’t know how because they’ve never done it. I’m happy to have them, if they’re looking up how to vote for Trump. ;-)

Also lots of people haven’t voted in years, and they have moved since they last voted, so they could be looking up what the voter registration deadlines are for their new state, or where is the nearest elections office so they can register, or looking up where their precinct voting is held, etc.

So I take this info as a GOOD thing.... the Monster Hidden Vote -— the Silent Majority that isn’t silent anymore!

I don’t think GOP is helping Trump much at all.

WE are the ground game. So if you can get a few people registered to vote, and if you can drive a few people to the voting booths on election day, do it.

Anecdote: I’m working a small town campaign office for GOP. The first day that we opened, only about 20 people came in for signs (all asking specifically for Trump signs, not the local politicians). Out of those 20 people, FOUR announced that they were lifelong Democrats who are now voting Trump. That’s 20% of the people that came in the door! Democrats for Trump! That’s huge.

Right. If you’ve never voted, you need to find out how to register, what documentation is needed, where to vote, what the polling hours are. My guess is that Trump is getting people who never bothered to vote to register. The numbers are big. Will it be enough to overcome voting fraud? That question can only be answered on Nov. 8.
