Georgia over night data dump takeaways:

1.  1.936 million have now voted.  (A bit lower than the news reported last night, I'll give them a bit of leeway).  

2.  1.522 million voted early in 2020

3.  Women now outpaces men in voting by 214k or 55.3 to 44.2%

4.  Election day voters from 2020 represent 110k of the turnout or 5.7%

5.  2020 non voters represent 304k or 15.7%

So where are the non 2020 voters coming from?

Democratic Strongholds - Bibb County 2.2k

Chatham County - 10k

Clayton County - 6.4k

Cobb County - 22k

Dekalb County - 20k

Fayette County - 5k

Fulton County - 39k

Gwinnett County - 23k

Muscogee County - 4.8k

Richmond County - 3.4k

So of the new votes, regardless of demographics, 133k come from major democratic strongholds.  (This obviously doesn't include every Democratic county - there are 159 total county here, just the major ones).  Based on that, my guess is that at least 50% of the 2020 nonvoters are in Democratic areas.

I’m starting to think it was Rogan who told the Harris folks “no” and not the other way around.

I also blame Rogan for last Saturday.

Yep.  It could be video evidence of him killing babies and it wouldn't matter.  We are through the looking glass.

One of you quants needs to book mark this site and get back to us around 7:30 pm on election night please. No one wants me doing math. 

Earlier than that, bro.  Those states close at 6pm CT (full or partially).  That shit needs to pinned/bumped at 5:59pm.

Hey fuckhead, you've had a fucking week to vet the story. Either fucking publish, or don't mention it becuase you can't confirm it. Clearly other outlets are having the same struggle.

If Rogan was smart, he'd let Trump on first, and then he'd bring on Harris 2 days later.

Its wild you say that, I was actually pondering that exact thing on my way to work

TIPP moves 4 points to Harris +2
Economist (YouGov) Harris +3
Morning Consult Harris +4
Ipsos Harris +2
The Times of London (YouGov) Harris +3

The only "bad" poll that came out yesterday was Redfield & Winton with Trump +2, but that's right wing Tory garbage.

I mean this genuinely, how do we function as a society when we have people like Vance openly stating that he wants to eliminate the WAY HIS WIFE BECAME A CITIZEN and there’s no pushback, no news stories, no controversy. Just business as usual and follow the cult leader at all costs.

And they have everyday Americans talking this way.  A buddy of mine taken in by Fox News talks openly about closing the border completely.  He's the son of an immigrant himself.  When I point that out, he just says it's different now, man.

Fox News has created a completely malleable mob.  They will believe, and they will do, whatever they are told.

Is there a way to see an aggregate of the polls that remove left and right leaning pollster?

I used to think Texas was ridiculous with 254 counties, until I learned Georgia has 159 counties with 19 million fewer people and Virginia with 133 with 2 million fewer people than Georgia. 

And somehow Kansas has 105 counties with only 2.9 million people! Illinois has 3 fewer counties and 10 million more residents than Kansas.

I was looking for something like this, and I'll probably repost it on Election Day

https://medium.com/@tcb.dna/what-early-reporting-counties-can-tell-us-about-the-2024-election-74fa50662cbb

tldr; there's a handful of counties in KY and IN (the 2 states where polls close first) that will tell us a lot.  If these counties shift left at all, even half a percent, a good night for Harris.  A small shift right - a long night/week.  A decent shift right - ugh, start drinking. 

How can someone track county by county results in real time on election day?

A few. Split Ticket is really my favorite of the aggregators - they're the most transparent in their methodology. 

While not excluding all right/left leaning pollsters, ST does remove 2 of the worst in ActiVote and Trafalgar, and they, unlike other aggregators like RCP, do weigh based on quality of the polling company.

Yeah, those things aren't important in a leader, but have you not seen the price of eggs and milk?  Also, the leftist liberals want to turn our boys into girls at school when we aren't looking.  It has to be true because I heard it on Fox News. These are the things important to the ignorant masses.

“I’ve been pitched a story about Donald Trump now for about a week, that if True, would end his campaign.” but I'm going to sit on the story until months after the election and put it in my next book.

So the Democratic Presidential turnout last time around was 81.1 million, while the Republican turnout was 74.2 million or 52.2% to 47.7%, so basically a 4.5% spread.  The real question here, as far I am concerned is, where is Trump actually picking up votes to close this gap?  I don't see it, turnout is extraordinarily high, everywhere.  However, even if you were to get into slanted distribution going the Republican way (which isn't happening), in order for Trump to reasonably close the gap to say 2% would required significant unequal distribution of almost 5 million votes, and if distribution is moderate but still in Republican favor, the total number of votes needed to close that number goes up dramatically.  So basically, it becomes the stuff of unicorns, like Trump picking up 10 million votes against last time against a turnout increase of 14 million (that's not happening).  

There is only one side here with enthused turnout, and yet the polls would have us believe this has narrowed?  This is bumpkiss.  The electoral college is a fickle bitch, so there is still a path for Republicans, but the idea that the national popularity contest has narrowed by any significant margin is nonsense.

Well if the polls are allegedly ensuring Trump voters get counted more in polling than Harris voters, that's why. 

But there is the possibility of Trump closing the PV gap by winning more votes in safe blue states like CA/NY that don't flip them, but losing the electoral college because Harris still wins MI/PA/WI.  But that is basing a lot on 2022, when the GOP did better than expected in CA/NY, and worse than predicted in the Midwest.

NYT/DDHQ/Politico usually have pretty good statewide maps where you can click on specific counties.

Electoral college bro.  It came down to a few thousand votes in a few states 4 years ago. And 8 years ago. And most likely this year.

There’s going to be a lot of shocked Pikachu faces about Nevada this year considering the automatic voter registration law that went into effect a few years ago automatically registers you unaffiliated unless you choose otherwise. Because they are primary young voters being labeled independent as soon as they turn 18

The demographics of the independent voters, especially in Vegas, heavily favor Harris. Young voters increasingly don’t want to affiliate with either party formally, but we all know they vote primarily Democrat

there was an article about this a while back - it's Trump picking up some support in Democratic strongholds like NY and CA. 

To use a recruiting analogy - he's "filling up on bread." These changes won't have an impact on the outcome.

Yup.  Only thing keeping me sane is that I will financially benefit from Trump’s tax policies.  Shit, if they can figure out some way of exclusively isolate the Trump voting browns, blacks, asians, arabs, LGTQ+, women, poors, etc for the upcoming FAFO rounds of deportation/forced pregnancies/ prosecutions/slave labor wages I may become a enthusiastic Trump supporter next few rounds.  If I am not allowed to feel no fucks for dumbasses who purposely vote against their own interests, then I sure as hell won’t feel bad for voting exclusively for my bank account.

Yeah but the young people have to show up to vote.

Granted less of a concern in Presidential elections than the other ones.

For reference, the non-Clark/Washoe parts of NV were about 180k votes out of 1.4 million total statewide. Clark is almost a million by itself and Washoe is a quarter million.

GOP will run out of rural votes pretty quickly 

rurals at 24% of 2020

Washoe at 19%

Clark at 24%
