In several states, even TX, early voting favors Democrats! Wait..., WHAT? Yes, it is true. And you do not have to be a rocket scientist to figure it out!
So why is the MSM and polls still not picking this up? Because the polls and the MSM, are part of the republican ploy to demoralize you! And it may be backfiring!
Join me over the jump for discussion:
I Just checked Burnt Orange Report and all dem counties are up for early voting. That is sginificant, if Bill White is to win. Also, in N.C. Raeigh early voting is up 200 percent from 2006.
Here is an excerpt from the article I will present to you:
"[This is the big test election to see if voter mobilization really has an effect on turnout." said Michael McDonald, a George Mason University government professor who has tracked early voting for several election cycles. "And at least according to the very earliest early-voting numbers, people who thought the Democrats were going to roll over and play dead, that's not what's happening."...
Iowa Secretary of State Michael Mauro, a Democrat, said his party is targeting students and minority voters who supported Obama in 2008 but don't usually show up for midterm elections. Spot checks with county auditors suggest the tactic may be working.
"I don't know if the pundits have missed this, but I think there's more engagement than we were expecting," Mauro said. "There was a belief that Democrats would stay home - but they're coming out.]" Washington Post
But, but, but, Chuck Todd said the republicans have more intensity and they would crawl over glass to get to the polls. And while that may be true, Democrats may not be as excited but are still coming out. Now, why is that? Why is this going under the radar and why are the MSMS so confident that republicans will win?
First, the MSM might be factoring in voter supression techniques in minority neightborhoods(LIKE kirk IS DOING IN cHICAGO). And on The front page of TPM, the tea baggers are trying to intimidate minority voters, so much so, the DOJ is looking into it! So beware!
Second, the Dem ground game is fired up! They are massive and are making a real push in alot of states, unions, OFA, DFA, and several other groups like NARAL and Emily's list are mobilizing. The DNC is putting in 3 million to AA GOTV ops, unprecedented for any election! BTW: The DNC raised 11.1 million in the first two weeks of October.
Thus, the ground game is closing gaps and local polls are indicative of this. Sestak is now ahead in two new polls, and Conway is ahead by two points. And in Florida, Alex Sink is ahead by 7, DGA invested another 500,000 yesterday to her campaign, and that makes it 6 million they have poured into her coffers. More than any other state! Go Florida! So, its the ground game stupid!

As you can see, the enthusiasm gap is not enough to squelch our voting habits, in fact, just the opposite. In short, keep calling we got this, here is a phone bank you can use for all states:
