When the 800 Hoosiers surveyed were asked who they plan to vote for, about 43 percent of them said Donald Trump, while 37 percent said Hillary Clinton.
But when asked if a person had already early voted the results flipped.
Trump had only 29 percent of early voters in the survey while Clinton climbed ahead to 59 percent.
After looking at other races in the survey, it appears democrats are casting their ballots earlier than republicans.
Its that energy. People are just excited to vote, said Keith Potts, volunteer at the Hillary Clinton campaign office on Indys north side. I voted on the first day of early voting this year because I just could not wait.

(21,999 posts)has been happening in many "swing" states. In the recent Loras poll of Iowa voters, Hillary was winning those that early voted by over 2-1, whereas Trump was ahead in those who hadn't voted by 10 pts (overall poll was HRC +1)
Not sure what this means

Seems like hers should be the winning strategy.

(8,656 posts)This is where the Dems ground game comes in, if her ground game can pick up every single voter out there that has not or needs to vote, they can go get them and deliver to the polls...Trump is too cheap to have a ground game and it will make a big difference on Nov 8th.
