We may know the next president before Election Day…
According to veteran journalist Mark Halperin, early voting is looking very strong for the GOP — so strong, in fact, that Trump may have an insurmountable lead before Election Day.
“If the early vote numbers stay the way they are, and that’s a big if, we’ll almost certainly know before Election Day who’s going to win,” Halperin, editor-in-chief of the 2WAY video platform, said Tuesday.
“[M]ake no mistake, if these numbers hold up in the states where we can understand even partially what the data is like, we’ll know that Donald Trump’s going to be president on Election Day,” he said.
From The New York Post:
The former NBC News reporter stressed that early voting numbers need to be tracked “day to day” and that those figures are “more important than the polls right now.”
“It’s more important than almost anything,” Halperin argued, “because it’s giving us insight into a variety of factors that are counting for a Republican overperformance by various metrics in the early voting in the battleground states.”
Halperin spotlighted the early vote totals coming in from Nevada, specifically populous Clark County, the county seat of which is Las Vegas.
“The Democrats usually have a huge lead there, [it’s] 4,500 votes,” the journalist said. “The rurals are overperforming their share of the electorate.”
Halperin also pointed to reporting Monday from the Nevada Independent showing that Republicans are leading statewide by 8,000 votes.
