CNN and MSNBC are revealing virtually nothing about how things are going for Hillary. That in itself says something. Or maybe not.
However, Fox News continues to give insight. In North Carolina, A Wake Forest U. Professor of political science says his State is among the best at gathering early voting info. Professor John Dinan reports in early voting from Afro American’s it is down significantly. Also, he says the Democrat vote is about normal. Republican vote running 12% above normal. But, here is the topper. Unaffiliated voters are voting 40% higher than normal. Who are these people? Speculative of course. But, they aren’t Black American voters…and they don’t claim to belong to any Party…all of which indicates they are not really into politics. Common sense would indicate they are not so excited that they are coming out of their shell to vote for Hillary. Who would rally those type of voters. You know who.
In Pennsylvania…CNN is showing a line so long they used a drone to survey the line. One to two hour wait to vote. This is Trump country. “It has gone from busy to ridiculously busy” says the CNN reporter. However, Philadelphia voting is heavy.
Meanwhile…two Florida election officials have been fired for not adhering to proper voting procedure. Voting in Durham County, North Carolina has been so heavy, officials are asking for an additional 90 minute voting time. Also notable in N. Carolina, FIVE precincts have switched to paper ballots because of problems with voting machines. Wait until “The Donald” hears about this. Utah also having problems with voting machines. Reports out of Virginia, thought to be a Democrat strong hold, say voting is very heavy.
Yours truly worked the polls for many many years in Indiana and suburban Chicago. Not once in all those years did I ever encounter a problem with a machine. While most news this early is encouraging for Trump supporters, Florida still holds the key. And Latino voting is heavy. But in this craziest of all Presidential elections, would it not be absolutely astonishing if Trump lost Florida, but picked up an unusual amount of “Blue States” that he still won. Who knows? Stand by for anything. Nothing is certain except the voting is huge.
