Trump won by 24 in 2016. Blackburn wins by ?. Now for nubmers. 2.5 million all votes cast in 2016. With early voting complete, we are up to 1.5 million votes cast. I estimate we end up with around 2 million total votes cast this year. Considering election day Rep turnout is usually higher (as in other states), that Blue county percentage may indeed decline to the final 2016 percentage. This is the first time analyzing TN so will be interesting to see final results.

“ALL 2016 TURNOUT OF BLUE COUNTIES (SHELBY/DAVIDSON)-23.4%
ALL 2018 EARLY VOTING TURNOUT OF BLUE COUNTIES (SHELBY/DAVIDSON)-25.5%”

I cannot understand the reference?
Does this mean the Blue Counties this year have 25.5% less Early Votes compared to Red Counties?
Made no sense to me either.

Sorry. Blue counties contributed 23.3% of total vote in 2016 and 25.5% of the vote so far this year.

I thought it was a minus sign but it was a dash.
“-25.5%”
Now I understand.
Bottom line, results are likely to be similar to 2016. Meaning a REP blowout in TN.
Hopefully this means that more Republicans are turning out in the blue counties?
Yeah I messed this up pretty bad. A little embarrassed. But you get the gist

I got money riding on Blackburn...
Your work is wonderful... nice to know you’re NOT always totally perfect...
:)
Marsha Blackburn will win PERIOD. I just hope the numbers will skunk the former Gov liar.
All the non-stop Bredesen ads here have got me thinking Marsha may be a crook, but if Trump endorsed her, she's got my vote.
