Red-Letter Day: Early Mail-In Voting Data Looking Good for Trump, GOP: Report

Republicans are cutting into Democrats’ early voting edge…

According to a Fox News report, data coming in from Decision Desk HQ shows the Democratic edge in vote-by-mail requests has shrunk significantly in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Florida.

According to the data, the Democratic lead in vote-by-mail requests has shrunk by over 5% in Florida, nearly 15% in North Carolina, and more than 35% in Pennsylvania.

“It’s great news that Republicans are starting to early vote,” Jimmy Keady, the founder and president of JLK Political Strategies, a Republican consulting firm, told Fox News Digital.

“I’m sure voters complain all the time about text messages, about getting mail, about getting robocalls to go vote,” Keady said. “Campaigns are now sophisticated enough that once you go vote, those stop… once a voter goes to vote, and those stop, that allows resource allocation from that voter to another voter.”

From Fox News:

Getting those lower propensity voters out could play a huge role in states like Pennsylvania and North Carolina, which are both expected to once again be swing states with razor-tight margins.

Vice President Kamala Harris holds a lead of less than a point in Pennsylvania, while Trump holds a similarly sized lead in North Carolina, according to the Real Clear Politics polling average, meaning the ground game to turn out voters on each side could be the deciding factor in the election.

The Democratic advantage in mail-in and early voting very well might have been the difference in the 2020 election, but Keady sees shifting momentum for the GOP on that front in 2024.

“It definitely signals that A, there’s turnout… but B, also that the base has adopted, kind of being able to accept that early voting is a proper and mostly secure way to vote,” Keady said.

Grassroots activist Scott Pressler recently spoke about his efforts to register Republican voters in the Keystone State and help drive early voting; “Democrats are actually down 130,000 mail-in ballots from where they were 4 years ago,” Pressler said.
