Florida Early Voting Update: Democrats Pull Ahead

By GottaLaff

It's a start:

Prof. Michael McDonald of George Mason University is compiling early and absentee voting data from all the states, and I notice that the numbers in Florida, which had been favoring the Republicans, now favor the Democrats. (This isn't a surprise; Republicans placed a heavy emphasis on mail-in absentees and Democrats are placing a heavy emphasis on in person early voting.) (Note: no one can be certain who these folks have voted for...just what party they belong to.) 50.1% of ballots returned are absentee; 49.9% were cast in person.

Democrats: 44.7%

Republicans: 40.0%

No Party/Other: 15.2%
